October 31 2023

Construction company GRAHAM has delivered Royal London Asset Management’s £44m ($53.46m) Wycliffe Retirement Village development in Buckinghamshire, England, UK.

UK-based real estate company Audley Group will operate this retirement village now work has been completed.

Spread across an area of 25 acres, the property includes 156 accessible living units split across five residential complexes, offering landscape views of the surrounding countryside environment.

The project saw GRAHAM build a central clubhouse on the site, which provides common amenities such as reception services, a restaurant, a swimming pool, treatment rooms, and a hobby area.

In addition, the landscape features a kitchen garden, a bowling green, and walking routes.

GRAHAM projects director Guy Salazar-Lewis said: “We have enjoyed a longstanding collaboration with Audley, spanning several years, on various retirement villages located in Wycliffe Park, Scarcroft, and Cobham.

“These establishments boast an exceptional array of amenities, reflecting our commitment to creating a thriving community for older people.”

Presently, GRAHAM is providing Audley with work valued at a total of more than £100m across three locations. These include the aforementioned Wycliffe Retirement Village development, the Cobham Retirement Village, and the upcoming Scarcroft Park.

Audley Group development project manager Alan Renshall said: “Demand for integrated retirement living options is as strong as ever so it’s essential we continue to build and operate villages that are designed so people can live better, for longer, by focusing on health and wellness in a holistic way.

"That’s exactly what we have at our 19 villages across the country.”

These projects are being financed via a joint venture with Schroders’ real estate division and healthcare real estate investor Octopus Real Estate.

South-East Asia Construction Market Dynamics

Per GlobalData analysis, the South-East Asia construction industry in 2023 is dominated by Indonesia, though the country will see a slowdown compared to 2022 due to elevated building material prices, weak commercial property demand, high interest rates and a softening of external demand. The construction industry in the Philippines is estimated to register a AAGR of 7.2% between 2024 and 2027, supported by the government’s focus on the development of the country’s rail and road transport and energy infrastructure.
