Current Keepmoat development projects

Keepmoat has developments and regeneration projects underway or planned. Here are two of these:

Spirit Quarters, Coventry

Spirit Quarters in Coventry is the redevelopment of the Wood End, Henley Green and Manor Farm Estates (WEHM), which will see the demolition of 2,500 existing homes replaced with 3,300 mixed-tenure new homes. Keepmoat heads a consortium that will deliver the project over a 15-year period and is working closely with local residents to ensure they are informed and involved. Local residents are encouraged to put forward suggestions on how the green spaces could be improved, such as natural play areas and footpaths along the river, and sign up as volunteers to help plant the wild meadow, clean out the river, and place bird and bat boxes in trees.

The first phase of 154 homes has been completed, and this site will provide many opportunities for home buyers, renters and investors, throughout its development lifecycle.

Ebbsfleet Garden Village – hot off the press!

Keepmoat Homes are buying land at Northfleet, part of the Ebbsfleet Garden City, from the Homes and Communities Agency at Ebbsfleet, with plans approved for 600 new homes in a deal worth £175 million. The site will eventually provide a mix of homes including two and three-storey traditional homes and modern apartments.

As part of the project, the WT Henley building – a disused 19th-century cable works factory – will be partly demolished.

Roland Grant, regional managing director of Keepmoat Homes South said: “The Northfleet site is a landmark development for Keepmoat Homes and represents the largest and most significant award in the area since we expanded the business into London and the South East in 2014.

“This is an important milestone in ensuring this scheme becomes a reality, and the acquisition and development of Northfleet will meet the clear demand in the region. It is another positive step for Keepmoat Homes’ ambitious growth plans in the Thames Gateway.”

The Northfleet development will provide homes for outright sale, for starter homes and for shared ownership and affordable rent. There will also be a number of retail units developed, including a café and local shops and community facilities.
