en.Wedoany.com Reported - Habiko, a joint venture between Muse, PIC, and Homes England, has submitted plans to Cheshire West and Chester Council for an apartment project on Charterhall Drive. Located near the local railway station, this marks the company's latest progress following its first project in Warrington, which was approved in May.
Founded in 2024, Habiko aims to deliver 3,000 homes over the next 12 years. The submitted plans are within the £120 million City Place masterplan area, previously designated for office use. The project proposes 342 one-bedroom and two-bedroom affordable apartments.
The design, led by Shedkm Architects, includes two apartment buildings of eight and ten storeys. Prior to submission, a public consultation was held last autumn to refine the scheme details.
For this project, Turley is handling planning consultancy, while Planit leads landscape design. Specialist advice has also been provided by Design Fire Consultants, MD Landscape, and Proximity.
Ella Woodward, Development Manager at Habiko, stated that advancing these housing projects on behalf of the company marks the beginning of turning their shared vision into reality in Chester, aiming to provide sustainable affordable homes for the community. She noted that this is a significant milestone on the company's journey to deliver 3,000 affordable, sustainable homes, with the plans refined over months to present the Charterhall Drive proposal suitable for all. She emphasized that the project supports a vibrant residential community, building on the progress of the wider area's regeneration, and helps meet the diverse needs of local residents and the broader community by providing high-quality, affordable housing.
In addition to the Chester project, Habiko has other developments in progress awaiting planning approval, including 240 homes in Warrington and 228 homes in Solihull. The company is also reportedly developing plans for approximately 300 homes in Liverpool.
