Plans have been submitted to build a care home on the site of a builders' merchant and car wash.
Altrincham based McGoff Group Properties Ltd are seeking permission to demolish the existing buildings on the 0.37 hectares of land to the west of Alderley Road and erect a 66-bedroom care home along with 30 car parking spaces.
The care home is proposed to be developed for New Care who have a current portfolio of 15 homes and with others already under construction. The Wilmslow care home is intended to be registered for 66 single bedrooms and provide nursing, residential and dementia care for residents of all dependency levels.
Once fully operational the new care home will create 85 new jobs comprised of 65 full- time and 20 part-time positions.
The plans can be viewed on the Cheshire East Council website by searing using planning reference 24/4391/FUL.
Plans have also been submitted recently for new 70-bed care home on the site of the BMW garage at 130 Manchester Road, Wilmslow.

Here's what readers have had to say so far. Why not add your thoughts below.
It would be much more affordable and sensible to build apartments for over sixties without all the unnecessary facilities costing a fortune. This enables people to trade down and to allow movement in the property market.
There should be no more than 12 apartments either allowing residents to have the freehold and manage their own maintenance arrangements.
