A mixed-tenure development of 246 homes across three sites in the Acton Gardens regeneration project
Phase 7.1 of the Acton Gardens regeneration project marks the beginning of a new identity for the northern area of the South Acton estate which is isolated from its local neighbourhood and characterised by large blocks sitting in a sea of ill-defined public realm. The scheme creates new connections with the surrounding neighbourhood and frames Avenue Road Park with a series of distinctive mansion blocks. A cluster of houses creates an intimate mews alongside the neighbouring Victorian homes.
The distinguishing feature of this project is the retention of mature trees, celebrating the green legacy of the original estate.
