The redevelopment of this important town centre site is long awaited by the local community and will deliver much needed homes for Basingstoke residents to enjoy.

We're working with Barratt Homes and have designed a flagship scheme which includes a large open space, keeps the iconic award-winning art-deco White Building on the site, and delivers a low rise housing scheme in keeping with the existing architecture.

The 25.6 acre site will provide a total of 618 new homes, 248 of which will be affordable for both rent and shared ownership. 

We’ll be building a mix of 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedroom homes under this joint venture with Barratt Homes, where we’ll share the surplus created on the private homes to reinvest back into the affordable homes.

With a cost of £95 million, the project is due to complete in phases between 2017 to 2021.

Award wins

The iconic White Building at the heart of this redevelopment earned Barratt Homes two prestigious awards in November and December 2020. It was declared the winner of ‘Best Refurbishment Project’ at the Housebuilder Awards, and it won bronze for ‘Best Renovation’ at the WhatHouse? Awards. We’re pleased the project has been recognised and look forward to our award-winning partnership with Barratt Homes continuing, so we can deliver more homes and bright futures for our customers.
