We’ve completed 197 affordable homes at Capital Interchange Way, including 85 for social rent.

Families on Hounslow Council’s housing waiting list have already started moving into the social rent homes. These homes offer a secure, affordable place to live.

A further 112 homes are available through shared ownership. Shared ownership allows people to buy a share of their home and pay rent on the rest. This makes it a more affordable way to get onto the housing ladder.

Together, these homes give people the chance to stay close to work, family and schools. They also help residents put down roots in the community they know.

A mixed neighbourhood in the heart of Brentford

The wider development includes 420 homes across three residential blocks. Alongside the affordable homes, there are 223 homes for private rent, including 12 discounted market rent homes.

Residents are close to Kew Village, Syon Park, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Chiswick High Street and Brentford Community Stadium. Green spaces, shops and transport links are all within easy reach.

There are shared gardens and terraces for residents to enjoy, including a courtyard garden for those living in the affordable homes.

Alongside the homes, 45,000 sq ft of commercial and retail space will support local jobs and bring new activity to Brentford’s growing town centre.

Built with sustainability in mind

The homes have been designed to reduce carbon emissions and help keep energy bills lower. Air source heat pumps provide low-carbon heating and hot water. High-quality insulation and building materials help keep homes warm.

We received more than £7 million in funding from the Greater London Authority to deliver the affordable homes, which we will own and manage long term. The build-to-rent homes are funded through a partnership between Telford Living, Ridgeback and Angelo Gordon.

Working in partnership

This project has supported 58 training and employment opportunities, delivered with MIT Skills and Hounslow Council. It achieved a Considerate Constructors Scheme score of 43 out of 45, reflecting high standards of safety, care for the environment and engagement with the local community.

James McMylor, Managing Director of Development for our north London region, said: “Affordable rent and shared ownership give people the chance to stay in the communities they know and love. It hasn’t been an easy scheme to deliver, especially in such a tough financial climate, but by working closely with our partners, we’ve created homes that will make a real difference for local people. We’re looking forward to welcoming residents over the coming weeks and seeing this new neighbourhood come to life.”

Tom Copley, Deputy Mayor for Housing & Residential Development, said: “It’s great to see these affordable homes complete at Capital Interchange Way, offering communal spaces, green surroundings and excellent transport links. I am delighted that funding from the Mayor of London has helped bring much-needed affordable housing to the area, and this development shows what can be achieved when partners share a clear commitment to delivering for local people. New shops, workspaces and training opportunities will also hugely benefit local residents, serving the wider community for years to come as we continue to build a better, fairer London for all.”

Alex Taylor, Senior Vice President of Telford Living, said: “This has been a complex project, delivered during a challenging time for the industry. We are proud to have partnered with Peabody and our development partners to deliver a high-quality, mixed-tenure development that will serve Brentford for generations to come.”

Councillor Shantanu Rajawat, Leader of Hounslow Council, said: “The completion of these new homes at Capital Interchange Way is a proud moment for our borough. In partnership with Peabody and Telford Homes, we’re delivering 420 new homes, with half of them affordable, helping more local families put down roots in Hounslow. This is about more than numbers, it’s about creating safe, secure homes and building communities where people can thrive.”
