Everglades Residential Care Home, in Marine Road East, ceased operation several years ago, and has most recently been vacant “attracting squatters and continuing to fall into a state of disrepair”.

The plans seek to change the use of the building into one two-bed maisonette on the ground and lower ground floor, and three two-bed flats above.

It also includes demolition of existing two storey projection to the front, and the erection of a two storey front extension with balcony above and alterations to windows and doors.

Applicants Mr and Mrs Paul Harrison said the renovation will give the whole terrace a much-needed uplift in appearance.

Subject to planning permission work would start on the site in May 2020, and would be completed within 10 months.
