S2 Estates has received planning permission for the redevelopment of Bracknell Beeches Business Park to provide 349 homes.
The mixed-use development will see the creation of a new residential neighbourhood, clustered around 24,000 sq ft of public realm and play space, with a community square as its focal point with small food and beverage offerings.
The development includes the provision of new pedestrian routes, 20% charging points for electric vehicles, 672 cycle spaces, and a new strategic cycle route that connects the site and Bracknell Rail Station, with adjacent emerging developments and the town centre.
S2 Estates has worked with Assael Architecture on the scheme’s design, which heavily focuses on accessibility and connectivity.
The development will provide direct public access to a new southern entrance to Bracknell railway station, which will benefit people living south of the railway line by enabling safe and convenient access to the station and town centre.
Sam Berg, director, S2 Estates said: “Bracknell is a fantastic location and has so much to offer, so we believe this development will only add to its vibrant local economy.”
Tim Chapman-Cavanagh, director at Assael Architecture, said: “Bracknell Beeches is a development designed for contemporary living. The town’s rapidly growing population needs the highest quality housing that is connected and accessible; the green light on this scheme shows the desire to deliver this.”
