Redrow in action - Breathing life back into communities
Redrow has been selected by English Partnerships, from a shortlist of 5 bidders, to develop a mixed use neighbourhood comprising approximately 463 new homes, retail, offices and community facilities, all situated on the former site of the Royal Navy South Yard Enclave in Devonport, Plymouth.
This represents Redrow’s first major development with English Partnerships, and will initially result in the phased removal of the high security walls that have separated the Enclave from the Devonport community since the Second World War, enabling the whole area to be reunited.
Of the new homes, 75% will be sold privately with 15% reserved for the first time buyer market, creating more opportunities for home ownership in an area that currently lacks choice. Homes for affordable rent and shared ownership will also be included within the scheme.
Steve Jackson, Senior Regeneration Manager for English Partnerships stated that this development would \"put the heart back into Devonport\". He added \"we’re confident Redrow will bring forward a high quality development that will provide a massive boost to the fortunes of the area. This result has been achieved in less than 6 months thanks to the excellent co-operation between government and local agencies to transform this piece of redundant public sector land and create a catalyst for wider regeneration in Devonport\".
Working closely with the Devonport Regeneration Community Partnership, through this scheme, Redrow will be making a significant contribution to the wider regeneration efforts of English Partnerships.
