EXETER | The Gardens, Whipton - Vaughan Rd | Residential | Appr

Thread covering the redevelopment of the former Whipton Barton House adjacent to Pinhoe Rd, Whipton. Plans indicate the site will situate several blocks of residential flats, roughly four storeys in height.
The project is on the portal under 19/1621/FUL and 23/0270/VOC, and due to the somewhat incompetent nature of the firm behind it - Exeter City Living - it has been severely delayed for years now.

You lot sure they are not just doing land treatment work similar to what they stated they are doing at Clifton? I think we're be very generous to having this headed as under construction. I'm pretty sure ECL will make a big song and dance about it if and when they actually start heavy works.

I'm editing this thread as Proposed until we see some evidence of heavy construction works.

Good to see some indication this one might be getting off the ground soon. I know we all rib ECL on here but if they are going to be responsible for the majority of development on council land then it's important they actually start delivering so as to not hold the city back. In fairness, I think the design for this one is alright. The buildings look ok and there looks to be a fair amount of gardens for residents. It's better than Clifton which I don't think the buildings are a great design and appear to be of rabbit hutch proportions.

Yeah some retail units might have been a good inclusion. A bit like that new residential block at the top of Cowick Street that has a salon and estate agent on the lower floor.
