Plans Approved For £150m London Housing Development

Plans have been approved for a new £150 million housing development in North West London.

A joint venture (JV) between Hyde Housing Group and house builder Hill will see 287 new homes built on an area of disused brownfield land in Harlesden, Brent.

Features of the scheme include maisonettes, apartments and wheelchair accessible properties. Each home will have access to private courtyards along with excellent transport links.

Construction on the development, which forms the final phase of the £225m Stonebridge Estate regeneration, will get underway later this month.

Andy Hill, Chief Executive at Hil, said: "The multi-million pound redevelopment of the Stonebridge Estate has been adapted and improved to create a sustainable, vibrant and truly multicultural community – something we can all be proud of.

"While our development marks the final phase of this regeneration, it is just the beginning of our new relationship with Hyde. I'm confident that this is the start of a very successful partnership and that together we will deliver the multitude of new homes which are desperately needed across a number of other London Boroughs."

David Gannicott, Group Director of Business Development from Hyde, added: "We are delighted to be working with Hill to develop and deliver homes for those most in need. Our core purpose is to help create sustainable communities for people to live in, and for the homes to stand the test of time."
