Blocwork, a Network Rail and Bloc Group joint venture, and Citra Living have formed a partnership to build over 2,000 new homes across Great Britain.
Network Rail Property will draw potential sites from its extensive rail-side property portfolio with Bloc Group acting as developer, and Citra Living managing and operating the built-to-rent homes, with an option to acquire some of the sites.
Robin Dobson, group property director at Network Rail, said: “This partnership, aimed at family living, is another key collaboration for NRP that will help us tangibly address the current housing crisis with thousands of new homes for families.
“These developments will also serve to breathe new life into towns and cities directly next to vital transport links.”
Nick Legget, development director at Blocwork, said: “The partnership between Citra Living and Blocwork will see some 2,000 much needed high-quality rental homes delivered to city centre brownfield areas.”
Savills acted for Citra.
