London Square Partners has sealed a deal on the St Michael’s Courtyard site next to West Croydon station to create a stunning new centrepiece for the area, with an attractive public square, shops, cafes and 232 new homes – with 55 per cent affordable.
The one-acre site was acquired from Portman Square Holdings. London Square Partners, the developer’s affordable housing division, will work with Clarion Housing Group to deliver their third scheme together. St Michael’s Courtyard has a GDV of £90m, which will form a major part of the West Croydon Masterplan and create a new gateway to Croydon Town Centre.
Construction is already in place for the development, designed by Assael Architecture, featuring two handsome brick buildings of 21 storeys and 25 storeys for the residential element, 947 m2 of commercial space, with retail and offices at street level and the new piazza opening up views to the listed St Michael and All Angels Church. Pedestrian links will also be created to the station and new shopping centre.
London Square Partners will work in partnership with Clarion Housing Group to deliver 128 shared ownership homes, alongside 104 apartments for private sale.
