Regeneration project context
Hertsmere plans spark Green Belt and transport fears
New housing developments near Barnet's border raise concerns over infrastructure and congestion.
The apartments are a component of a broader initiative by Enfield Council aimed at delivering 10,000 new homes and creating 6,000 jobs. This regeneration masterplan is projected to contribute £3.6 billion to the UK economy. SO Resi, the shared ownership brand of Metropolitan Thames Valley Housing, is responsible for the delivery of these new homes.
Sarah Ellis, director of sales and marketing at Metropolitan Thames Valley Housing, stated the organisation's commitment to assisting individuals in overcoming obstacles to owning a home and securing quality housing. She added that Meridian Water is being transformed into a dynamic new community with extensive housing, green spaces, amenities, employment opportunities, and transport links. Shared ownership, she noted, is important for making homeownership more attainable, particularly in London where affordability is a persistent issue for many prospective buyers.
