Inland Homes plc

('Inland Homes' or the 'Group')

 

Major Planning Application Approval

 

Inland Homes plc (AIM: INL), the housebuilder, partnership housing developer
and regeneration specialist focused on the South and South East of England, is
delighted to announce that its asset management division has received, on
behalf of the third-party project investor, a resolution to grant planning
permission at Cavalry Barracks in West Hounslow for a mixed-use development
comprising 1,525 homes and approximately 2,700sqm of commercial space.

 

The Cavalry Barracks was the Group's fifth transaction with the Ministry of
Defence and its largest to date, with an estimated gross development value in
the region of £600m. The Group identified this site in 2020 and, following
close consultation with the London Borough of Hounslow, submitted the planning
application in March 2021. Under the asset management model, in return for its
land and planning expertise and the management of the project, the Group has,
to date, accrued fees at achieved project milestones of £19.5m .

 

The Group continues to act on behalf of the project investors to finalise the
terms of the Section 106 agreement which is expected to be signed within the
next few months and then support the investor through the site disposal plan,
which will crystallise the value and facilitate the payment of the fees earned
by the Group.

 

The former Ministry of Defence site is one of the largest remaining
undeveloped brownfield sites in London at 36.7 acres and with excellent public
transport links to nearby Heathrow Airport and central London, the site
location is strategically important. The sympathetic redevelopment of the
Cavalry Barracks will support the London Borough of Hounslow in serving the
demand for and delivering much-needed, additional, low-cost housing and the
ongoing regeneration of the area. As part of the approved plans, 14 Grade II
listed and 9 locally listed buildings will be retained and 10.6 acres of open
space provided. The commercial space will support a variety of uses including
shops, cafes, workspace and community uses to foster a vibrant community.

 

 

Nish Malde, Interim Chief Executive Officer at Inland Homes, commented:

"The historical significance, location and scale of the Cavalry Barracks make
this an exceptional brownfield site and we are delighted to have worked with
the London Borough of Hounslow to have secured a resolution to grant planning
permission on behalf of the project's investor.

 

"We look forward to finalising the terms of the Section 106 as quickly as
possible so that the next phase of the Cavalry Barracks' story can begin."

Notes to Editors:

Incorporated in the UK in 2005, Inland Homes plc is an AIM-listed specialist
housebuilder and brownfield developer, dedicated to achieving excellence in
sustainability and design.

Inland Homes acquires brownfield land in the South and South East of England
principally for residentially led development schemes. The business then
enhances the land value by obtaining planning permission, before building open
market and affordable homes or selling surplus consented land to other
developers to generate cash.

The Group is committed to extensive public and community consultation in order
to ensure that, where possible, local community needs and objectives are met.

Inland's aim is to create sustainable communities and homes which set a
benchmark for all future developments in the South and South East of England.
The Group is always looking for brownfield sites without planning permission
for future development.
