The six-storey building – known as Westmead – follows Willmott Dixon’s recent completion of 112 homes on 300 Harrow Road for the council and the company’s building of 197 homes on the 22-storey Dudley House in Paddington.

Construction on the latest scheme will start this month and complete towards the end of 2025.

Stewart Brundell, managing director at Willmott Dixon in north London and Northern Homes Counties, said: “We are delighted to be working again with Westminster City Council and CGL Architects for our third project together. It is fantastic to build on the success of the two previous projects to continue providing high-quality, affordable homes for the residents of Westminster.”

Cllr Matt Noble, Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Renters said: “We’re really pleased to be working with Willmott Dixon again after the recent completion of our 300 Harrow Road scheme. The Westmead development will see 65 much needed genuinely affordable homes in the North of the borough. This continues our drive to building a Fairer Westminster for everyone.”

David Kay, Architect, Child Graddon Lewis said: “The design-led scheme navigates complex site levels and supports the retention of mature trees, whilst taking architectural references from the surrounding conservation areas and late 20th Century neighbouring housing schemes.

“The simplicity of form is complemented by a rich, confident and high-quality material palette. Further, improvements to the surrounding existing green space will provide benefits for the whole community.”
