The Whiteley Homes Trust
Almshouse Cottages
One and two bedroom cottages
At the core of Whiteley Village are 264 Grade II Listed one and two-bedroom almshouse cottages.
Cottages
The charming cottages that line the streets of the village were designed by celebrated architects from the earlier part of the last century.
A closer look will reveal some of the striking architectural features like the 'barley twist' pillars, the moulds for which are thought to be in the vaults of Hampton Court Palace.
Set out in an octagon around the monument to our founder, William Whiteley, the almshouses are in easy reach of the multiple facilities, services and social opportunities that our Village has to offer.
The cottages are intended for those who can live independently. However, as residents’ needs change, our Support Team can offer support and advice on next steps. This will enable them to remain in their home for as long as they are able to.
