"The Twickenham redevelopment is already delivering meaningful improvements and opportunities for growth in the Twickenham area, by not only providing major station upgrades to ensure it is fit for passengers, but also delivering much-needed housing and facilities for the community."

Steve Peggs, Business Development Director, Network Rail Property

"We were delighted to see this scheme receive recognition in the Property Awards 2023, where it was Highly Commended in the category of Development of the Year."

Tim Shaw, Senior Development Director, Solum

The entire development offers 121 new quality one, two and three bedroom homes. The scheme has been built on surplus railway land and supports the central government target for high density residential development around transport hubs and reducing pressure on the surrounding greenbelt.

In addition to the three residential units, the development forms part of a wider scheme to deliver £8.5m of infrastructure improvements, including a brand-new landmark station building, improved platform access, great transport links into London and a public plaza over half the size of Twickenham rugby pitch, hosting shops and a café for passengers and residents to enjoy.

Solum Regeneration sold its remaining interest at Twickenham Gateway to Meadow Partners. Upon completion of the deal, Meadow Partners, a private real estate investment firm, owned the final two residential blocks – known as B and C, as well as the commercial element – totalling 82 residential units and four retail units at 69,072sq ft.
