A major new housing regeneration scheme at Kilburn in North West London has been approved by Brent Council’s first virtual planning committee.

Peel Place, the £161m civic quarter of the South Kilburn Masterplan Regeneration Programme, will now go-ahead into construction.

Developer Countryside, housing association Home Group and Brent Council are working together to deliver 308 homes, of which 41% will be for affordable housing – including shared ownership and social rented homes.

As part of the civic quarter, residents will also have access to a new health centre, community hub, affordable gym, affordable workspace, and a market square.

Child Graddon Lewis Architects & Designers is the architect for Peel Place

Located within walking distance of the bustling Carlton Vale area and a short walk from Queen’s Park and Kilburn Park stations, the first wave of new homes is expected to be ready in Q3 2021.

Andy Fancy, managing director, Partnerships North & South London, Countryside said: “Gaining planning permission for the entire Peel Place scheme is testament to the meticulous work we have done together with Home Group and Brent Council to shape a vision for what’s set to become a thriving new community in the capital.”
