The London Borough of Ealing Council has granted outline planning permission for ongoing regeneration of the Borough's largest housing estate. The application includes 1,950 new homes.
Redevelopment of Acton Gardens, formerly the South Acton Estate, began in 2012. This application for the undeveloped areas takes the total number of homes to be delivered to 3,300.
The application includes a detailed application for the next 200 homes to be built, due to be constructed this year. Retail, commercial, community and healthcare, parks, open spaces and allotment spaces will also be provided with a designated bus route.
The planning consultancy was submitted by Acton Gardens LLP, a joint venture between Countryside Properties and London & Quadrant Housing, working with the Borough Council.
Like-for-like re-provision of all social rent homes is included in the application, as well as an increase in the provision of shared ownership properties.
A representative from Acton Gardens LLP added that "London's housing needs have changed considerably since the original masterplan was conceived, so this revised masterplan will deliver a scheme that more closely matches the community's needs and desires".
