Richmond Cycle Shelter, Wandsworth

Homebase Wandsworth is set to become a unique and innovative flagship built-to-rent development, offering 1,000 homes and 85,000 sq. ft of commercial space. This transformative project, constructed over five new buildings, is committed to sustainability and aims to diversify the community by providing 35% affordable housing. The development includes more than 15,000 sq. ft of mixed-use space for retail, office and community use, significantly enhancing the local and public area with a new playground, communal spaces, and improved landscaping.
