Willmott Dixon has been granted permission for its house building division to being construction of a 188 home development in Mill Hill, North London.

The firm got the green light from Barnet Council on a reserved matters application for its Prime Plac development at Millbrook Park.

In total, the development is set to provide 2,174 new homes in a landscaped park, with a new primary school, offices and shops.

Willmott Dixon’s Prime Place business has got the go ahead to construct 159 homes for private sale, along with 29 homes for affordable rent.

Prime Place Millbrook Park has been designed by architect Broadway Malyan and will primarily be made up of flats, along with a number of three and four bedroom town houses.

Willmott Dixon now uses the Prime Place brand for developing homes for sale, while Willmott Partnership Homes builds for other developers, including housing associations.

The firm has also created the Be:here brand which it uses for private rented properties. The three brands come under the Willmott Residential division, which was created as part of the company’s reorganisation earlier in the year.
