Castlemere Developments To Invest Over £1.8m In New Airspace Development

Construction News Image
Castlemere Developments is investing over £1.8 million in a new airspace development that will add five apartments to Wimbledon Chase.

The Windsor-based developer has already spent more than £400,000 acquiring Vision House, an Art Deco property on Kingston Road, as part of the project.

The scheme at Vision House will feature one three-bedroom, two two-bedroom apartments and two one-bedroom apartments. The apartments will cost from £385,000 up to £650,000 once on the market.

Having completed the purchase of property on August 23rd, work will now commence on constructing the apartments. These will be built offsite using modern methods of construction (MMC). It is expected that the project will be completed by spring 2025.

This acquisition and plans for Vision House follow the completion of Castlemere Developments’ first completed airspace project in Tunbridge Wells, which has 11 apartments.

Castlemere Developments is in the process of securing a number of locations across the south east, which will see the company provide a mix of airspace developments and ground up properties.

The company has purposely committed to off-site MMC to enable it to deliver projects much quicker than onsite developments, reduce the disruption to current residents, and ensure its developments are as environmentally friendly as possible.

Kris Collett, managing director of Castlemere Developments, said: "Vision House is the latest addition to our portfolio which will feature five high spec apartments, which will include smart home technology.

"Vision House, which was originally an office block, has already undergone conversions to 19 apartments inside the original structure. It also has four commercial units on the ground floor.

"I expect to commence work on building the apartments in the autumn and for them to be lifted into place in the first quarter of 2025. The aim is to have the apartments on the market from spring 2025."
