Global real estate advisor, JLL, have been appointed by waterside regeneration specialists Peel Waters as the marketing, lettings and management agent for Miller’s Quay, the monumental £130m residential scheme at Wirral Waters, the UK’s largest and most sustainable regeneration project.
With construction at Miller’s Quay approaching its final stages, five hundred highly sustainable one- and two-bedroom waterfront apartments, including 100 affordable new homes, will soon hit the market.
Apartments are expected to be released in two phases, with phase one, the first 150 new homes, due to open in the summer of 2024. Phase two, the final 350 new homes, will be ready in early 2025.
This transformational residential scheme is delivering high levels of sustainability and innovation as well as significant social impact, with 100 affordable new homes included and a wide range of unique learning and employment opportunities for the local community and students at neighbouring Wirral Met College.
