Minterne Apartments is an Extra Care scheme in White City, London, for people over the age of 55.
The scheme is brought to you by Housing 21; an award-winning and sector-leading, not-for-profit housing provider for older people of modest means.
Extra Care is different to a care home. Living in an Extra Care scheme means you live independently in your new home, but with the peace of mind that having help on hand brings.
You have your own front door and letterbox; can have friends and family visit (without asking permission) and can bring pets along with you. The only difference is that here you have an on-site care team available 24/7, an on-site Manager and access to communal facilities – if you want to use them.
Minterne Apartments has been carefully designed to provide fully accessible facilities for residents and the local community. Treat yourself to coffee and cake or a hot meal in the impressive on-site café/bistro, or socialise with like-minded residents in the communal lounge and gardens.
The scheme is located within White City Living/ Shepherd’s Bush, in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. The area is quickly establishing itself as a new West London community and destination with excellent transport connections, outdoor spaces and an abundance of shops and places to eat and drink within the Westfield Shopping Centre.
In this heartfelt video, meet Jane, a resident at Minterne Apartments — as she reflects on her life journey through a personal letter to her younger self. Her story offers a touching glimpse into the experiences and community spirit, that make Minterne Apartments more than just a place to live.

To be eligible for the Older Persons Shared Ownership (OPSO) scheme, applicants must meet the following criteria:
- Age requirement: applicants must be aged 55 or over. Some OPSO developments may allow a couple where the main applicant is 55 but a second applicant is 50 or older.
- Homeowner status: applicants should not currently own another home. If they do, they must be in the process of selling it before purchasing through the OPSO scheme.
- Income threshold: the annual household income must not exceed £80,000 (£90,000 in London).
- Affordability assessment: applicants must demonstrate that they are unable to purchase a suitable home on the open market but can afford the costs associated with OPSO, including mortgage payments, rent, and service charges.
- Financial capability: applicants will need to be able to secure a mortgage or have sufficient savings to pay the share in full if retired. Good financial standing is also required, with no outstanding bad debts or county court judgments (CCJs).
