Multi-generational homes for London
A 50:50 joint venture (JV) between Hill and Hanover, the £25.7m development is the third JV to be announced by the partners, intended to create a “multi-generational community” in the capital. The 32 properties available for private sale at Newington Gate will reportedly be designed to suit first time buyers, while the 28 affordable rented homes will be developed exclusively for the over-55s. Newington Gate will also bring 12 shared ownership homes to the local area, meaning 56 per cent of the new homes will be affordable. Work has already started on the site, which sits on the border of the London Boroughs of Hackney and Islington on Matthias Road. As part of Hill and Hanover’s proposals, a five-storey block will be replaced with the 72 new homes, as well as a community resource centre and three retail units. Paul Jordan, regional director of Hill, commented: “Developing under- utilised land is key to delivering much needed homes across the capital and we are proud that 56 per cent of the homes at Newington Gate will be affordable.
A “Multi-generational living has numerous benefits for both younger and
older residents, and whilst it is growing in popularity across London, devel- opers have a responsibility to encourage this where possible by providing suitable housing.”
Sales at Newington Gate are expected to launch next year, with the first homes hoped to reach completion in summer 2020.
project offering 72 new homes have been launched in Newington Green, north east London.

The Luminia SC156 Lift and Slide door is a brand new aluminium sliding door from aluminium systems company AluK that is anything but ordinary. Designed primarily for high end apartment blocks and luxury hotels, it has already been specified ahead of launch in Berkeley Homes’ prestigious West End Gate residential development in Marylebone, central London. This the second product to be introduced into AluK’s new Luminia premium product tier, which is characterised by contemporary aesthetics and exceptional performance; and it sits alongside the already popular Luminia F82 bi-folding door. In terms of aesthetics, the SC156 Lift and Slide door boasts slim sightlines of 95mm around the frame and just 50mm on the central interlock. It can accommodate large expanses of glazing up to 3100mm high with panel weights of up to 400kg, so truly maximises space, views and natural light. In line with the rest of the AluK range, the SC156 is available from stock in three standard colours and two dual colours. Outside of the stock offering, AluK also offers a vast range of popular and custom RAL colours and finishes. The new door is available exclusively through AluK’s network of Luminia Select Partners, who are all carefully selected fabricators who share AluK’s ethos and approach in targeting the premium sector.
