The mixed-development, to be called Adel Square in celebration of the listed quadrangle, has a total value of £55 million including the care home.
Tim Reeve of Advent Developments said: “We are delighted that planning has been granted and look forward to starting preparatory work shortly.
“The local councillors and community have been overwhelming supportive of our plans during the period of public consultation, recognising a sustainable use for the site is long overdue.”
