The release of the final 10 apartments marks the completion of the project, which has seen the Grade II-listed landmark carefully converted by whg in partnership with Morro. The scheme of modern one- and two-bedroom apartments opened in 2025 and is already home to a settled community.

The open day will take place on Wednesday (February 18) from 10am to 12pm. Those interested in living at the scheme can attend on the day and meet at the front entrance on Cleveland Road. No booking is required.

Nightingale House combines independent living with shared spaces and on-site support within a building that holds strong local significance. Original features have been retained to reflect the hospital’s history, alongside updated interiors designed for modern living.

The first residents moved into Nightingale House during 2025 and the community is now well established.

Originally built in the 19th century, then altered and extended over many decades, the building’s long history means today’s apartments are each unique in layout and size.
