HOLA advised on the sale of Merrifield Manor, a newly completed 58-apartment Retirement Living development in Stanley, Wakefield. Developed by Torsion Care and acquired by Vico Homes, the scheme represents a high-quality, turnkey asset designed to meet the growing demand for affordable later-living accommodation in the region.
Merrifield Manor provides a mix of one- and two-bedroom apartments for residents aged 55 and over, complemented by thoughtful features including integrated care link systems, EV charging points, landscaped gardens and welcoming communal spaces — all supporting comfort, wellbeing and connection.
Delivered on time and to exacting standards, the development is a testament to the collaboration between Torsion Care, consultants, and the wider project team. The acquisition by Vico Homes ensures Merrifield Manor will continue to deliver long-term social and community value, enhancing local housing options for older residents.
“Merrifield Manor is a great example of a well-designed, affordable Retirement Living scheme that adds meaningful value to the local community. We’re pleased to have supported another successful transaction in partnership with Torsion Care.”
