Countryside Properties (UK) Limited
Councils are progressing housing developments with Countryside Properties, addressing project viability and adapting to new fire safety regulations.
Barnet Council's Cabinet approved the full business case for the Dollis Valley regeneration in July 2026, enabling the acquisition of 208 affordable homes after Phases 4 and 5 had stalled due to viability challenges. In February 2026, Ealing Council's Cabinet approved a development agreement with Countryside Properties (UK) Limited for the Gurnell residential site, intended to fund a new leisure centre.
Enfield Council paused Phase 3 of the New Avenue housing project, a partnership with Countryside Properties (UK) Limited since 2014, in November 2025. This was due to new fire safety regulations requiring a second staircase, leading to the conversion of private sale units to social rent. Lambeth Council also approved the New Homes Hexagon project with the company in July 2025, planning over 500 new homes with half designated as affordable.
