175 new properties have been provided for the over 55’s, including new council rented homes, shared ownership homes and properties for sale.

The development is now complete. For shared ownership homes and properties for sale, please visit the Park Rise Hornchurch website.

The village sits on the edge of the Green Flag-winning Harrow Lodge Park, which benefits from lakes, reservoirs, wildlife and open green spaces.

The new homes are also a short walk to Hornchurch Town Centre, home to popular shops, cafes and restaurants.

The colour scheme is designed according to a ‘sunrise’ theme, after the name of the road, Sunrise Avenue.

There are new homes available as ‘shared ownership’ for the over 55’s, and new council properties which have been available to rent since Autumn 2023.

The project created 22 local jobs and provided 1,148 apprenticeship training weeks on site.

39 local people were supported through qualifications as a result of this project.

“I couldn’t fault the (moving) process. It was very good! The Council did as much as they could to help."

“I'm keen to return to the retirement village. I really liked it there to start with and can't wait to move back!”

At Park Rise living is easy.

The high-quality apartments alongside Harrow Lodge Park have been designed and built exclusively for over 55s to live independent lives whilst being part of a wider community.

Whether you’re leading an active life, enjoying a quiet retirement, or need a little help and support, Park Rise is the perfect home. Future-proof, low maintenance apartments set around beautiful central landscaped gardens provide contemporary comfort in a stunning parkside setting.

It takes all types to make a community, and you’ll have plenty of opportunity to meet your new neighbours in the shared indoor and outdoor spaces or by joining in the many activities on offer. If needed, help is at hand from the estate manager.

At Park Rise living together is a pleasure.
