Developer Click has confirmed Mid Group will start construction of its Aspire residential scheme in Slough in April.

The £32m development will contain 238 studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments at the town centre site.

The homes will be located on a former open-air car park on Herschel St near Slough Railway Station.

All of the units will be finished to a high-standard that meet the latest building control standards and certifications and the communal roof-terrace will enjoy uninterrupted and protected views of Windsor Castle.

A show home will launch in early 2021 and it is anticipated that the first homes will be completed during Q4 of 2021.

Debbie Aplin, a Non-Executive Director at Click said: “Slough has seen almost 20% property price growth over the last five years – a figure significantly higher than for London (12%) over the same period.

“It is, therefore, clear why the town appeals to savvy investors and since the start of this year, we’ve witnessed a marked increase in interest from both investors and first-time buyers, fielding sales enquiries in double figures each day.

“Our presence on site and evidence of work progressing, will I am sure heighten interest even further and our sales team are preparing for a very busy period in the coming months.”
