A nursing agency has applied for permission to knock down a care home in Jersey and replace it with supported living apartments.
Apex Nursing Agency has proposed that Longfield Villa Care Home on La Rue du Bocage, in St Peter, be demolished and 14 one-bed rental apartments be built in its place for people over 55 years old.
The proposal outlines a facility for an onsite manager, car parking spaces, bike storage, electric car charging stations and a public footpath along the road.
The existing single-storey buildings would be replaced with a set of two-storey terraced buildings if the plan is approved.
The owners of the care home said "it cannot continue on this site without wholescale reconstruction" as the underlying structure was "at the end of its service life".
They said the new facility would be managed by a warden instead of up to 30 staff that had previously been on site.
