Practical Information

Planning Status Advisory: Prospective buyers must be aware that the 263-home development, built on the former Crewe Works site, has been subject to a retrospective planning application (22/4863N) following the lapse of the original permission due to developer failure to resolve a contaminated land condition. While the council has indicated that issues are 'almost been resolved,' residents have previously reported difficulties selling, insuring, and re-mortgaging their homes pending final resolution and regularisation of the planning status (information correct as of late 2023). It is strongly advised that all buyers consult their conveyancer for the current status of application 22/4863N and its implications before committing to a purchase.

The Sales Office is typically open on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 11:00 to 18:00. For the most current availability, pricing on 2-bedroom apartments, specific house types, and to arrange a viewing, contact the developer directly.
