St George, a proud member of the Berkeley Group, has handed over 115 canal-fronted homes at its Grand Union development in Alperton, North West London to Brent Council.
This marks the second phase of affordable homes to be delivered at Grand Union and forms part of the 1,170 homes that will be dedicated to affordable rent or shared ownership at the development.
Spread across 11 storeys, the 115 homes are situated along the 850 metre canal frontage within Clearwater House and comprises a mix of one, two and three bedroom homes. Residents have started moving into their new homes and are already exploring the exciting new restaurants, shops, amenities, and community centre on their doorstep.
Grand Union is a 3,350-home mixed use development set within 14 acres of open space and is currently home to more than 1,000 residents. Alongside the new homes, St George is establishing a diverse retail, leisure and food & beverage offering at the development. This currently includes an Anytime Fitness gym, Benham &
Reeves estate agents, Full of Beans soft play, The Pantry community café and Grand Union Community Hub run by charity London’s Community Kitchen and local college students, a Co-op, Peapods nursery and Crepes+Coffee café, which operates from the development’s narrowboat PAVO. Further leisure facilities and restaurant operators are set to be announced this year.
Together with SEGRO, the leading owner and developer of industrial and warehouse space, St George has also delivered a 134,500 sq ft multi-storey industrial development called SEGRO V-Park Grand Union. It provides modern, light industrial space, and has created up to 250 jobs for local people.
