Affordable Housing Currently Under Construction

The London Borough of Sutton (LBS) has acquired 217 homes on this development from the Berkeley Group. 132 of these homes are being funded via Right to Buy Receipts and the remaining 85 funded through the GLA’s Affordable Homes Programme 2021-26. Additional finance is also being provided through the internal LBS Housing Revenue Account (HRA) capital funding.

The entire scheme of circa 1000 homes is a welcomed boost to Sutton and provides:

• A significant contribution to the regeneration of Sutton town centre,
• A permeable landscape-led masterplan, with 60% of the site area landscaped and open space of 3.5 acres,
• A new 1.1 acre public park - Chalk Park,
• 35% affordable homes (by habitable room),
• Over 80% dual aspect homes,
• Improved connectivity in the locale, particularly with Manor Park.

The scheme received planning approval from the Council in December 2023.

The homes will be built to high energy standards; and this scheme in particular contains a high percentage of larger family homes for the Borough’s residents.  The homes will be let at social rent levels meaning that they will be genuinely affordable.

The demolition of the existing B&Q store is now complete and the first affordable homes for LBS are due to be delivered in 2029.
