Tide has secured a resolution to grant planning permission for its 1,051-home Ilderton Road scheme in South Bermondsey, SE15.
Enhancing a previously approved scheme, Tide increased the affordable housing provision by 55% to 186 homes and the number of co-living homes from 605 to 865.
Work on the vacant brownfield site is due to start later this year and completion is expected in 2027. Tide’s sister company and offsite manufacturer Vision Volumetric will carry out the works.
Helen McManus, head of planning at Tide, said: “This project showcases how our volumetric construction approach can deliver more affordable housing for local authorities in a faster, sustainable, high-quality and efficient way. Combined with the 55% uplift in affordable housing, increased shared living units, enhanced pocket park and improved public realm, this scheme will deliver considerable benefits to the area and its community.”
Nenad Manasijevic, principal director at architectural firm TP Bennett, said: “Working on the Ilderton Road scheme from the start, we have focused on delivering much-needed design-led, sustainable housing and co-living for Southwark. It has been great working with Tide to ensure the future of this proposal, now one step closer to being delivered. This partnership has allowed enhanced sustainability measures for the scheme, utilising a volumetric method of construction to target a BREEAM Excellent rating.”
