<\/a><\/p>\nIrwell Gardens scheme reintroduces the traditional terrace pattern of nearby houses, with modern architecture, such as sawtooth rooftops, inspired by the industrial heritage of the region.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The three-acre brownfield plot off Regatta Street fronts the River Irwell and will ultimately deliver 100 modern townhouses and 100 apartments across two phases.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nMellior is steering the planning application for Phase 2, which will add a further 50 houses and 100 flats once approved.<\/p>\n
The construction programme for Phase 1 runs for 18 months costing around \u00a335m to build.<\/p>\n
The deal strengthens Bentry Capital\u2019s growing \u00a3500m UK residential pipeline and follows its nearby Willow Court scheme of 119 apartments, where final homes are now being handed over to owner-occupiers.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nIrwell Gardens sits close to Salford Quays, MediaCity and the University of Salford, and also overlooks the historic site of a 1944 Lancaster bomber crash still commemorated by the local community.<\/p>\n
David Cain, co-founder and chief development officer at Bentry Capital, said: \u201cMellior Group is excellently placed to lead the construction of Irwell Gardens and we look forward to starting on site in the new year.<\/p>\n
“Despite the wider market challenges, we have delivered premium quality homes at nearby Willow Court and this trusted, experienced team will be put into action on Irwell Gardens to bring this vision to life.\u201d<\/p>\n
