Hendon Waterside - Phase 3A
Hendon, London
Phase 3A of the Hendon Waterside development continues the regeneration of the area into a thriving and cohesive neighbourhood. Hendon Waterside is a flagship regeneration development set within 170 hectares of beautiful green surroundings overlooking the Welsh Harp reservoir and just 30 minutes from central London. Once completed over 2,000 one, two and three-bedroom homes most with a private balcony or terrace will be delivered and the latest phase, Lakeview, is now selling.

Phase 3A Masterplan Layout
The access to the linear public pathway running close to the reservoir will be utilised to allow permeability across the developed space. New landscaping will be incorporated near the reservoir which will connect the existing pathway to the new central avenue which forms part of the whole regeneration scheme.
The redevelopment of the West Hendon estate provides the opportunity to re-establish a clear visual connection between the site and the adjacent reservoir - the Welsh Harp - while respecting it's ecology.

Route to Hendon Station
Pedestrian and cycle links to exisitng road network encourage movement without the need for a car. Green spaces and the enhancement of popular routes to public transport help to make these journeys more pleasurable.
The proximity of rail and bus services means that the site is well connected to other parts of Barnet and central London. This accessibility is considered in the proposed improvements to the route to and from Hendon Station to make it a route ideal for a new high-density residential community.

Exisiting transport links
The site is in very close proximity to Hendon station (approximately 300m) which provides good links to surrounding areas and central London. The site has a PTAL rating level of 3 and is within zone 3. St Pancras station is located only 25 minutes away. Existing bus links reinforce the sites public transport network and encourages the use of these over private car use.

All buildings share similar detailing to provide a consistent visual context
The overall 25% Affordable Housing provision is well integrated within the masterplan development. Shared elevational treatments and material palette will create a cohesive facade which does not distinguish between private and affordable housing types.

The massing and density of the scheme varies throughout the masterplan to provide areas which differentiate from each other
The masterplan development requires a legible townscape which integrates into the existing built fabric, while also providing defined character areas in collaboration with public open space areas and the use of heights and materials.

It is anticipated that one bed flats are likely to take up a generally low level of parking reflecting the practical option for owners of smaller units to live in this location without owning a car. Suitable parking will be provided for larger units, as well as bicycle storage facilties and charging points for electric vehicles.

All residents will be required to take their refuse to the basement refuse store. The store has been designed to the London Borough of Barnet Note on Waste Management. A series of euro bins, each with a 1,100 litre capacity will provide segregated waste handling for household, recycling and organic waste. On collection day, Barratt Homes on site management team will collect the euro bins and truck them up to the collection area on West Street. A seperate 'large item' waste storage room has also been provided for the occasions when residents need to have furniture or bulky items removed.
