Leaden Hill Outline Planning Granted

We are extremely pleased to report that Croydon Council have granted outline planning permission for up to 75 new flats and commercial space for our site at the Leaden Hill Industrial Estate, Coulsdon.

We would like to thank everyone who participated through the consultation process over the last fifteen months, particularly the four residents’ associations.

There is still a great deal to do before we can start on site, but our intention is to work through the planning conditions in the coming months, with a view to being on site Q3 2017.

This innovative development of 74 studios, and one, two and three bedroom flats, plus a small ground floor commercial unit,  will be built over eight to 12 floors.

The scheme, which is a stone’s throw from East Croydon Station, will also feature a 123 square feet indoor community space and children’s play area, which will open out onto a courtyard.  There will also be a spacious roof terrace for use by residents on the eighth floor.

Planning Application submitted for 108 Purley Downs Road, Sanderstead

Our planning application for 108 Purley Downs Road, Sanderstead has today been submitted to Croydon Council.

The scheme, which comprises eight x five bedroom detached houses, is the product of extensive consultation with the local community and the Local Authority.  Further details can be found on our Case Studies page.

The siting and design of the properties has been carefully considered to create a scheme which respects its surroundings.  A great deal of time has been taken to create interest and definition is provided through a simple, but high quality palette of materials and finishes.  We firmly believe that the traditional architectural approach will be visually striking and the quality of the design will be a welcome addition to the area.

We hope to have a favourable decision by the end of the year.

Blairderry Road Phase 2 Completed

Work Commences at Milton House, Croydon

The demolition phase at our Milton Road, Croydon development is due to commence today.   Clearing the existing structures on site is going to be no mean feat and is likely to take a minimum of 16 weeks to complete.  Keep up to date with our progress by visiting our dedicated public consultation website – www.miltonhouse.co.uk

Planning Permission Secured for Milton House, Croydon

Planning permission was granted by the London Borough of Croydon last week to construct 81 new homes on the former Milton House site close to the centre of Croydon.

The £21m development of one, two and three bedroom apartments and a small number of three bedroom houses, as well as 1,900 sqm of commercial floorspace, will transform the dilapidated site on Milton Road and Gloucester Road.

It has been a journey, but we are thrilled to have finally achieved planning permission for this complex project.   The removal of the derelict buildings which currently blight the area, will make way for a high quality mixed use scheme, which we truly believe will drive the ongoing regeneration of this part of Croydon.

There are many people who deserve thanks, including officers and councillors of the London Borough of Croydon and most importantly the local community itself.  Your support throughout has fundamentally helped shape and deliver the proposal.

Work on site is envisaged to start in May this year.  Updates on our progress can be found via the development’s dedicated public consultation website – www.miltonhouse.co.uk

PizzaExpress Opens in Trinity Square, Coulsdon

We are delighted to have secured PizzaExpress as a commercial tenant within our Trinity Square development in Coulsdon.   From inception of the project, we believed that it would be an ideal location for them and we sincerely hope that it will be a welcome addition to the High Street.

The restaurant is scheduled to open today and we would like to take this opportunity to wish them all the best going forward.

It is estimated that 640 kilograms of dough will be used in the first month, as the staff produce an estimated 6,300 pizzas and 4210 portions of the famous PizzaExpress Dough Balls.
