Planning Permission Granted for Bristol Residential Development

10/9/24

Planning permission has been given for the development of three new buildings in the centre of Bristol, including a new aparthotel, a hotel and Build-to-Rent buildings.

The plans have been put forward by development manager Marick Real Estate along with IKB Developments, and will see the construction of three new buildings comprising a 230-room hotel, a 170-room extended stay aparthotel, and over 100 build-to-rent flats.

The scheme, designed by architect Sheppard Robson, will focus on a site known as Plot 3, which has been vacant for around 30 years and is owned by Homes England. It is next to the 130-hectare Government-funded urban regeneration initiative which aims to create a flourishing new urban quarter for Bristol.

A spokesman for Marick said: "We are pleased to have secured planning consent for 3 new buildings in Bristol. This includes a new aparthotel, a hotel and Build-to-Rent buildings (with affordable provision), along with commercial units and public realm on the site that forms one of the final elements of the Bristol Temple Quarter masterplan. This site neighbours a new 130-hectare Government funded urban regeneration initiative which aims to create a flourishing new urban quarter for Bristol.

"The site and its surrounding masterplan gentrification will cater for a series of mixed-use communities, including office and commercial spaces, leisure, a pedestrianised civic square, a conference centre, and student housing.

"The council's aspiration is to build up to 10,000 new homes in the area under the plans – 2,500 of them to be located next to Temple Meads station.

"We are looking forward to becoming a significant contributor to the next regeneration stage with this gateway project."
