Small Sites Phase 2 development programme
Kingston Council is acquiring properties for social housing, pending grant funding approval for its Small Sites Phase 2 programme.
Kingston Council's Corporate and Resources Committee approved the acquisition of 55 properties from Cambridge Road Estate LLP in September 2025. This £20.54m acquisition, part of the Small Sites Phase 2 development programme to increase social rented homes, is contingent on approval of GLA Grant funding.
The council is currently awaiting GLA Grant funding approval for the acquisition. A report to the committee in September 2025 did not specify a timeline for this approval, nor what would happen if the grant is not approved, leaving the next steps uncertain.
