Plans for 700 new homes in two parts of Enfield

Enfield has been in the news for months because it was earmarked as a great location for a New Town. It could deliver an incredible 21,000 homes. While that project is now uncertain after the Council chose to withdraw from the scheme, citing a wish to preserve the Green Belt in the area, there are other plans in the works. Two projects could deliver almost 700 new homes. Let’s have a look, then you can rely on us if you want solutions like guaranteed rent and estate management in Enfield.

Brimsdown Sports Ground

Estate management EnfieldThe first proposal is to redevelop the former sports ground site off Goldsdown Road in Brimsdown. Formerly home to two local football clubs, it has been vacant for over 15 years now. In that time it has deteriorated, including the football stadium. Sadly, it has become a prime spot for anti-social behaviour. The former clubhouse on the site was burned down in 2023, requiring dozens of firefighters to tackle the fire.

These new plans want to redevelop the site and build 390 homes. They would be a mix of houses and flats. In addition, the project would deliver a new park, play areas, and space for informal recreation. The goal is to create a brand new neighbourhood in a green, well connected area.

It will be interesting to see what happens here. There have been different ideas for what redevelopment might look like. Initially, the draft Local Plan said it could become housing, although with hope for new sports pitches. However, there was a change in view and it was decided the site should be primarily for playing fields. There are conflicting arguments though, claiming there are facilities in the area already at Durants Park. Speak to us about investing, guaranteed rent, and estate management in Enfield.

North Middlesex University Hospital

The second project would redevelop surplus buildings and land at North Mid, off Sterling Way. Vistry is proposing to create 306 homes (152 social rent and 154 shared ownership), as well as new NHS offices, a nursery, and a cafe.

There are a few concerns about the plans. For one, it will require the demolition of a building with a local listing. Additionally, there are fears about the impact of building a 16 storey tower on the site.

While the concerns have merit, Enfield planning officers are recommending the plans get approval. Their finding is the impacts are acceptable. Most importantly, the “substantial public benefits” are enough to overcome any heritage harm, including the demolition of the listed building.
