Redevelopment so far
Phase 1
We signed a contract with Higgins in 2019 to deliver the first 89 homes in phase 1.
The development was a mix of townhouses, duplexes and flats. It provided 69 new properties for Grange Farm council tenants. The remaining 20 properties were shared ownership, helping local people to own their home for the first time.
The scheme also included an attractive shared central courtyard, play equipment and gardens.
Phase 2A
The proposals for Phase 2A include 45 new homes, some with private gardens. It will also include public spaces and play areas.
These homes will be for affordable rent. It will include homes for the remaining secure tenants of Grange Farm as social rent (council housing).
Demolition of the old blocks began in Summer 2025. Construction will start in Spring 2026. The new homes are expected to welcome residents by Summer 2027, continuing the journey toward a vibrant, inclusive community.
The new homes will be delivered across two blocks:
- a 3-storey building behind Dudley Road
- a 4-storey one behind Shaftesbury Avenue
Both will have lifts and be designed to meet the needs of local residents.
Ground floor homes will have their own rear garden and will include homes built to wheelchair standard.
Future Phases
The original outline planning permission for the later phases has now expired. We are working on a new delivery strategy to bring these phases forward, with a focus on providing more genuinely affordable homes for social rent for Harrow residents.
The future phases will also include new community facilities such as:
- a community hall
- green spaces
- play areas
- improved walking routes to the high street and surrounding neighbourhoods
