Externally, properties at The Waterfront will reflect the industrial and trading heritage of the site, reinterpreting it with red brick detailing and panelling.
Works at Gloucester Quays are scheduled to begin in November 2018, with the first homes available to move into in September 2019.
Andrew Ball, Development Director at Crest Nicholson South West, said: "We are pleased to have finalised our acquisition of this iconic local site in the vibrant centre of Gloucester.
