Enfield Council has approved a hybrid planning application for a £770m regeneration of the Joyce Avenue and Snell’s Park Estate in Angel Edmonton, N18.
The HTA-designed regeneration project spans 17 acres and includes 2,028 homes, a community centre, nursery, energy centre, parks and improved pedestrian and cycle connections.
The scheme forms part of Enfield Council’s housebuilding programme and commitment to the regeneration of the Edmonton area.
Enfield Council has received grant funding of £150m from the mayor or London to aid the development.
The plans for the site were submitted in November 2022.
Enfield Council leader Nesil Caliskan said: “We are determined to build more and better homes for Edmonton residents, and our plans for Joyce & Snell’s estate – overwhelmingly backed by residents – will create more than 2,000 new homes, more than half of which will be affordable, for either social rent or shared ownership.
“As well as much-needed homes, the new estate will become a well-connected neighbourhood, helping to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour, and will create new jobs and reinvigorate the high street, boosting the local economy.”
Enfield Council cabinet member for housing Ayten Guzel, said: “This is a pivotal moment for Enfield and for the people of Upper Edmonton. We will deliver well-designed, good-quality, affordable homes, accommodating households on a range of income levels. I am particularly happy to see the provision of much-needed family-sized homes, which will help alleviate overcrowding in our borough and lead to the creation of a strengthened community in Upper Edmonton.”
