Waterside Places<\/a> has signed a major deal with Latimer<\/a> \u2013 the development arm of Clarion Housing Group<\/a>, to deliver the fourth and final phase at Islington Wharf<\/h2>\n

Waterside Places has appointed Morgan Sindall Construction<\/a> as the scheme\u2019s main contractor.<\/p>\n

The Islington Wharf site sits within the Piccadilly Basin, which has been transformed over many years and is just a short walk from Manchester Piccadilly station.<\/p>\n

The scheme is well-placed for walking, cycling and public transport<\/a>, enabling residents to access the amenities and employment opportunities within the city and further afield thanks to its unrivalled connectivity.<\/p>\n

Islington Wharf will bring forward 106 one and two-bedroom apartments over two buildings at 11 and 16 storeys respectively, with 54 available through shared ownership, on the corner of Great Ancoats Street<\/a> and Old Mill Street.<\/p>\n

The wider Islington Wharf scheme has been delivered by developer Waterside Places, a strategic joint venture between Muse Developments<\/a> \u2013 one of the UK\u2019s leading mixed-use and urban regenerator \u2013 and the Canal & River Trust.<\/p>\n

To date, the wider Islington Wharf development has brought forward 348 much-needed city centre homes<\/a> on the banks of the Ashton Canal, ranging from one-bedroom apartments, to four-bedroom family townhouse homes that are innovatively and sympathetically designed to blend both the heritage of the area and its future; boasting high-quality features throughout.<\/p>\n

An affordable way to get on the property ladder<\/h3>\n

Richard Cook, group director of development for Clarion Housing Group, said: \u201cThe acquisition of this site continues our investment in the city of Manchester and demonstrates our commitment to providing new high-quality homes across different tenures and price points to meet demand.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur ambition is to deliver more than 50% of the new homes at Islington Wharf through shared ownership, offering an affordable way to get on the property ladder in a city that has so much to offer.<\/p>\n

\u2018We\u2019re looking forward to working with Waterside Places, Manchester City Council<\/a> and local people to create a new community that generations to come will call home.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tom Webber, senior development surveyor at Waterside Places, added: \u201cWe\u2019re proud to exchange this deal with the Latimer team, which will accelerate the delivery of much-needed affordable homes in the heart of Manchester.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis phase represents the last phase of development here for us and we\u2019re looking forward to getting on site to bring forward this striking scheme of apartments.\u201d<\/p>\n
