The Octagon – Housing with support in Basildon

The Octagon is a delightful eight sided building that is home to a maximum of ten residents. We are situated in the peaceful village of Noak Bridge, just outside of Basildon, Essex.

An experienced, friendly team actively runs The Octagon, providing wonderful housing with support. Our residents get to know our fantastic chefs, as well as our helpful handyman. Additionally, our house managers are also always around should you need extra help, or fancy a chat over a cup of tea.

Within walking distance, you’ll find both the local shop and GP’s surgery. On dry days, the picturesque duck pond is a lovely spot to sit and enjoy the fresh air.

For those interested in making the short 1.5 mile trip into Basildon, the bus conveniently stops right outside the house.
