Welcome to the public consultation website on proposals for new affordable homes and community facilities for local people at North Middlesex Hospital.

Read on to find out more about our emerging proposals and how you can get involved in our public consultation.

New Homes at North Middlesex University Hospital

Vistry is excited to be working with the GLA and the NHS to bring forward this exciting place at North Middlesex University Hospital.

The scheme will bring forward over 300 high quality, affordable homes and public green spaces for the wider community. The new homes will utilise surplus brownfield land at NMH.

All of the homes on site will be affordable, they will be a mixture between social rent and shared ownership and will come in a variety of styles and sizes to suit different needs, including family homes and one- and two-bedroom apartments.

The Site

Situated in Angel Edmonton, Enfield, the site is nestled within the grounds of the North Middlesex University Hospital (NMUH), occupying the Eastern section of the hospital site on surplus NHS land.

The land is no longer needed for hospital use with the buildings on site mostly unoccupied or underoccupied by desk-based NHS staff, who will be relocated to a new, better quality office building as part of the proposals.

Our proposed development will take place within the context of wider changes in the surrounding area to improve the environment and infrastructure: projects in the vicinity include the Selby Urban Village Masterplan, the Joyce and Snell’s Estate and the Meridan Water Development.

Our Proposals

New affordable homes for local people

100% of all homes will be affordable, a mixture between social rent and shared ownership providing a variety of different styles and tenures to suit households of all sizes. All homes will have private outdoor spaces such as balconies, terraces and gardens for residents to enjoy.

Sustainable design at the heart of the project

The proposals will enhance biodiversity and green spaces to the highest industry standards. Streets will be designed for walking, cycling, and easy access to public transport. The existing car park that will be developed as part of the proposals is only for NHS use at present – no public car parking spaces at the hospital are being lost.

All homes will be energy-efficient, connected to a low-carbon heating network, supporting Enfield’s Climate Action Plan.

New green spaces for everyone

We are proposing extensive areas of public green open space connecting the community, including a new central park with 1500m2 of play areas for children, lawns for relaxation, plenty of trees and planting and new and improved walking and cycling routes.

These new spaces will provide a place to relax and enjoy a natural environment for local people, new residents and NHS staff.

New community facilities and benefits

Alongside the new homes and green spaces, we will provide new community facilities including a new nursery and a community café overlooking the central park. The site will incorporate public realm improvements to benefit the whole community, with hospital entrances made to be safer and more welcoming, ensuring the site feels open and easy to navigate.

Additionally, the project will delivery a range of benefits for the local community, providing jobs and apprenticeships during construction, as well as funding for local services, secured through a legal agreement with the council.

Have your say

We are still in the early design stages of our proposals.

To this end, we would like to invite the local community to take part in a public consultation to hear your views and feedback, so we can ensure we can take the needs of the community into account.

We are hosting a public drop-in exhibition on Thursday 16th October, 3pm – 7pm, where you can view more detailed information about the proposals, speak to the project team and share your feedback with us.
