Richard Mawdsley, director of development at Peel L&P, said: \u201cOur new joint venture with Urban Splash is fantastic news for our local community bringing the very latest in housing design and innovation to the site.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis development, which follows hot on the heels of our announcement last month about a \u00a390m residential scheme comprising of 500 high-quality homes along Northbank, will transform the site into an internationally recognised destination with a residential quarter.”<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\u201cWe\u2019re now just waiting on the final piece of the jigsaw, securing a Housing Infrastructure Fund grant from Homes England. Only then can we finally get the first wave of housing underway at Wirral Waters.\u201d<\/p>\n
Urban Splash\u2019s modular concept of factory-built modular homes is also being rolled out in Birmingham – where homes are currently on sale – Manchester, Salford and North Shields – where 10 of the homes have been designed by TV architect George Clarke.<\/p>\n
A fifth site is planned at New Islington in Manchester for 2019 with future sites also in the pipeline in Milton Keynes and Walsall.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nJonathan Falkingham MBE, founder and creative director at Urban Splash said: \u201cThis is another part of our ambitious plan to expand our modular housing business and follows our acquisition of the House factory earlier this year.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are keen to create well-designed, urban family homes in more cities across the country. Merseyside, which was the birthplace of Urban Splash 25 years ago, seems the perfect place to move forward.”<\/p>\n
