Ardmore has clinched the residential fit-out works for the large-scale redevelopment of the former Whiteleys shopping centre in London’s Bayswater.

Designed by Foster + Partners, the £111m fit-out contract will see Ardmore deliver 139 luxury residences, providing over 300,000 sq ft of exceptional residential space.

Main contractor Laing O’Rourke is presently working on the shell and core of The Whiteley, which is a joint-venture development by MARK and C C Land, with Finchatton acting as development manager.

In addition to the new residences, The Whiteley will deliver up to 20 new shops, cafes and restaurants, a central public courtyard, a cinema, a gym and London’s flagship Six Senses hotel and spa with 110 rooms, as well as a social wellness club, all set behind a retained and restored Grade II-listed façade.

Ardmore will start on site in September, with The Whiteley fit-out set to complete in 2023.

Richard Shaw, Development Director at Finchatton, said: “The team has forged an extremely strong and collaborative relationship with Ardmore and we look forward to working together in delivering the stunning collection of residences at The Whiteley.”

James Byrne, Ardmore Director, said: “We are thrilled to be appointed to deliver the residential fit-out package at The Whiteley, which adds to our exceptional portfolio of luxury residential schemes in London.  We’ve assembled a fantastic team, who are looking forward to working closely with MARK, C C Land and Finchatton to bring their World-Class vision to life.”
