Developer X1 Developments and waterside regeneration specialists Peel Waters have got the green light to build over 200 flats within the emerging Trafford Waters district at Manchewster’s TraffordCity.
The two-block development is the third residential project at Trafford Waters and will bring much needed new housing to the area
Split across two buildings rising to 8 and 13 storeys, the project will be located adjacent to Trafford Way, with the larger of the buildings incorporating a waved design, creating a striking gateway development into Trafford Waters.
Work on the project is expected to start later this year with a contractor still to be appointed.
On the ground floor, there will be amenities and commercial space, suitable for coffee bars and restaurants
Peel Waters and X1 Developments have a strong history of working in partnership together, collaborating on residential projects at Manchester Waters, Liverpool Waters, Eastbank in Ancoats, MediaCity and Chatham Waters.
The newly-approved development at Trafford Waters will be the largest to come forward within Peel Waters’ regeneration site to date.
James Whittaker, managing director at Peel Waters said: “We’re really pleased to see planning permission come through for this brilliant residential development at Trafford Waters.”
The approved plans form part of the first wave of homes being brought forward as part of Peel Waters’ wider Trafford Waters development, a scheme that will deliver up to 3,000 new homes, over 100,000 sq ft of amenity space, a new primary school and 20 acres of open space.
