Brent Cross Town, our new neighbourhood being delivered in partnership with Related Argent, has welcomed its first ever residents, with social housing amongst the first to be completed.

At Conductor House, 120 new homes will provide replacement social housing for residents of the nearby Whitefield Estate as well as welcoming new residents into shared equity and London Living Rent homes. All homes have a private garden or balcony area to maintain access to their own space, as well as a communal garden to enjoy together.

Alongside The Delamarre, which provides the first homes for private sale at Brent Cross Town, almost 300 new residences have been completed as part of the first phase in the development of over 6,700 new homes in the area.

These moves are a major milestone for the ambitious Brent Cross Cricklewood regeneration programme and marks a special moment for residents like Linda Graham who said: “I’m absolutely over the moon with my new apartment! The open layout and three large windows that bring in so much natural light are just perfect.”

Providing affordable housing early on in the development, as well as high quality parks and open space, and improving transport connectivity with our new Brent Cross West station is an important part of our vision to ensure existing residents benefit from the transformation of the area.

Councillor Ross Houston, Deputy Leader of Barnet Council and Cabinet Member for Homes and Regeneration said: “I am delighted to see residents receiving the keys to these fantastic new homes. This is a huge moment for the development, bringing much-needed social and affordable housing alongside the wider mix of homes being delivered.”

Brent Cross Town is an £8 billion net-zero park town, which will deliver 6,700 of the 7,500 new homes planned for the wider Brent Cross Cricklewood programme, including social housing, private sale, student accommodation, later living and build-to-rent homes.
