Some 100 affordable homes to let are being delivered in Southall, West London.
Southall’s Golf Links estate will see the construction of 143 homes, including 104 affordable new homes to let to council tenants.
They are expected to be ready for people to move in from autumn 2026.
Councillor Peter Mason, leader of the council, said: “This is another step on the path to delivering new, desperately needed affordable homes at Golf Links.
“Our regeneration project is breathing new life into the estate, making it an accessible and welcoming place to live.
“By prioritising inclusivity, quality, and functionality, we are creating a vibrant neighbourhood that reflects the diverse needs of our residents.
“The outstanding new flats that we are building at Golf Links will offer a leap forward in the quality of life for the families that will move into them.”
Building work to redevelop the Golf Links estate got underway in March 2013.
Two phases of regeneration have already been completed at the estate, with the construction of Dormers Rise in 2016 and Peterhead Court in 2019.
This phase of new homes is being built by The Hill Group and were designed by Stephen Taylor Architects.
Affordable housing crisis
There has long been a chronic shortage of reasonably priced housing in the borough.
Since 2018, private rents have almost doubled in some areas of the borough, and have risen 8.5% in the last year alone – the highest increase in the private rented sector across London.
In turn, this has led to the highest ever rate of requests for emergency help with housing that Ealing Council has ever experienced.
In total, 2,100 new homes of all tenures were completed across the borough in 2022-23, marking the highest number of housing completions in London that year.
