New homes
East Village will deliver 2,818 high quality new homes. The homes will set exemplary design and sustainability standards, and will be surrounded by open green spaces, including tree lined squares and communal gardens.
Triathlon Homes owns 1,379 affordable homes at the Village. There will be a mix of tenures and home types, including social rent and shared ownership and this will ensure that a vibrant community is formed with housing opportunities for a range of residents, particularly for people from the local area.
The majority of the remaining 1,439 private homes in East Village are to be let on a rental basis, with the ownership remaining with Qatari Diar Delancey. This will create the first UK private sector residential fund of over 1,000 homes to be owned and directly managed as an investment.
Following completion of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the homes will enter their final phase of completion, at which point they will be finished to a high quality specification, and be ready for residents to move into from Summer 2013.
