The scheme will also include 20,000 sq ft of commercial accommodation, providing much needed space to creative and start-up businesses in the area.

To improve sustainability, green initiatives such as solar panels will be installed on the roof, providing the building with communal lighting and power.

Dan Batterton, BTR Fund Manager at LGIM Real Assets, said: "Blackhorse Lane is a hugely vibrant and rapidly growing area of London.  It needs new quality housing and we are pleased to have appointed Galliford Try Partnerships to help us achieve our vision of creating a vibrant and healthy community."
