More than 740 Build to Rent (BtR) homes are to be developed at Wembley Park in London.

Quintain has signed a £211 million contract with contractor John Sisk, which will see the company deliver 743 new BtR homes across seven buildings at the site. Construction is scheduled for completion in 2020.

The Canada Gardens development, which marks Sisk's ninth project at Wembley Park, includes over 300 of the homes to be provided as two- and three-bed units. Shared facilities include a podium level play area and new play park for children, as well as a special dog walking area and pet garden.
