en.Wedoany.com Reported - The development arm of Clarion Housing Group has issued a £60 million design and build tender for two sites, Rockhills and Sydenham Villas, on the edge of a park in south London.

The project plans to deliver 148 social rented homes and 54 shared ownership homes, along with a new community centre, landscaping works, access routes, and related infrastructure. The London Borough of Bromley granted planning permission earlier this year, paving the way for the procurement phase to proceed.

The housing scheme is part of a wider regeneration project for Crystal Palace Park. The initial land disposal provided over £21 million in funding for park improvement and restoration works.

The bid deadline is July 9, with Clarion Housing Group planning to make an award decision by August 21. The successful contractor is expected to mobilise by the end of August, with a target completion date of August 2030. The contract will be procured through an open procedure, evaluated on a 60:40 price-to-quality weighting.

Clarion stated that the homes will be designed to harmonise with the historic park while meeting the area's affordable housing needs. Richard Cook, Chief Development Officer at Clarion Housing Group, said: "We welcome the approval of the new affordable housing scheme at Crystal Palace Park. This proposal will deliver much-needed homes for local residents while creating a new community centre serving both new and existing residents."
