£93m property development underway in Essex district with London transport links
Weston Homes has acquired the site of the former Pearson Education headquarters car park in Harlow from developer Land Charter Homes.
The site will be redeveloped into Edinburgh Way, a £93m residential scheme providing 361 one, two and three-bedroom apartments with landscaped gardens.
Weston Homes obtained planning permission for the development, which will be 11 storeys high at its peak. The scheme will have parking at ground and first floors, with landscaped podiums, a new public realm and pedestrian links to Harlow Town Park.
Bob Weston, chairman and executive of Weston Homes, said: “Weston Homes are excited to be bringing Edinburgh Way to Harlow. We expect this high quality scheme to set a new standard for development in the Harlow area and are delighted to be expanding our portfolio into Harlow with this great scheme.”
The site is located amongst several areas of green space, including Harlow Town Park, Marshgate Spring Nature Reserve and canal towpaths along the River Stort to the north and east.
Edinburgh Way will be within walking and cycling distance of leisure, shopping and recreational services situated in Harlow’s town centre.
Edinburgh Way will provide transport from Harlow Town train station, with direct links to London Liverpool Street station and Cambridge.
