The project forms part of the first wave of 350 homes to come forward at Peel’s mixed-use development, which has outline planning to build 3,000 homes, a primary school, hotels, offices and a 20-acre public park.

Anna Ciesielska, Director of Montpelier Estates said: “We are very pleased with the planning decision to approve our bespoke residential and nursing care scheme at Trafford Waters.”

James Whittaker, executive director of Development at Peel L&P added: “Trafford Waters is all about creating a community for everyone.

“We’ve carefully and considerately worked with our partners to create a fully inclusive offering which will include a fantastic mix of homes from affordable and build to rent, to open market homes and elderly living alongside specialist care homes.

“There will be something for everyone and Trafford Waters will be an exemplar in creating a sustainable mixed tenure community.”

Trafford Waters is one of Peel L&P’s seven waterfront regeneration schemes across England and Scotland within the Peel Waters portfolio which will create 30,000 homes, 10 million sq ft of commercial space and circa 160 acres of public realm over the next 20 to 25 years.
