John Graham Construction has been appointed as the main contractor for this ambitious project spearheaded by Greystar. Spanning several buildings from two to twelve storeys, the scheme will encompass 247 modern apartments alongside commercial areas and essential amenities.

This element of the project highlights a broader objective to integrate diverse housing solutions within the community.
Designed by Hawkins Brown Architecture, the development is poised to offer more than just living spaces. The design philosophy emphasises smart architecture with a strong sense of community. The architecture firm envisions a blend of high-quality, sustainable buildings with communal green spaces, aligning with contemporary living standards.

Pat O’Hare, the regional director, commented on the project’s potential to meet modern living demands while supporting community goals through affordable housing and green spaces. His statement resonates with the project’s vision of combining environmental consciousness with practical urban living solutions.
The financial architecture of the project is robust, underpinned by a £68.5 million debt facility arranged by Societe General. This significant financial commitment ensures the development is well-positioned for its projected completion in autumn 2026.
