A mix of housing, student accommodation and commercial space is to be built on the former Hartwells Garage site on Newbridge Road in Bath.
The 8.4-acre (3.4-hectare) development, led by Hartwell, the automotive and property development company, will redevelop a former car showroom that closed in 2019.
Designed by Allford Hall Monaghan Morris, the development will create 104 apartments, 186-bed student accommodation, new A1/A3 commercial units and public realm landscaping.
Hartwell group property manager Joanne Churchill said: 鈥淭his is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to regenerate a key brownfield site and deliver high-quality homes, student accommodation, green public spaces and sustainable infrastructure that directly benefit the Newbridge community and wider city鈥� Our initial enabling works will see the old and damaged canopy removed and pre-construction survey works. Further information on future construction works will be communicated as the project progresses.鈥�
Acting on behalf of Hartwell are Allford Hall Monaghan Morris, Mcfarlane & Associates, Walsingham Planning, Ridge, Stantec, IMA Transport Planning and Aspect Ecology.
A main contractor has yet to be appointed.
