DAEDALUS WATERFRONT - PLANNING APPROVED

Daedalus Waterfront, Lee-on-the-Solent has received unanimous planning approval. The historic 42-acre waterfront site will be brought back to life once again with 24,500sqm industrial use, 5,200sqm workspace, and 346 much-needed mixed-tenure homes, 76 of which will be refurbishments of the existing heritage buildings including the historic barracks square.

Central to the scheme is the restoration of the historic buildings, including the WWI hangars. These will act as a gateway; and will become the upgraded home for The Hovercraft Museum and a new public space for local events.

ACME has enjoyed working with Homes England and Daedalus Development Company on this regeneration project and is excited to see it progress to the next stage.

Mamsha Gardens draws inspiration from the natural surroundings of the island and boasts signature landscaped gardens in which residents can relax and unwind. The gardens will feature water-efficient irrigation systems and a selection of native plant species, ensuring that the landscape thrives with minimal resource consumption.

The development features seven residential buildings comprising 493 homes thoughtfully designed with premium finishes and fittings. The development features a range of amenities, including two centrally located pavilions with gyms, yoga, Pilates and meditation rooms, as well as swimming pools, kids’ play areas, a multi-use games area, underground parking, bike storage, and residents’ lounges with workspaces and lounge seating. 

Mamsha Gardens will also include restaurants with outdoor dining terraces and shops, as well as a community theatre and separate retail underground parking. The locations of each of these spaces have been strategically designed to attract foot traffic and provide a vibrant social space while affording residents the utmost privacy.

In line with Aldar’s goals to promote sustainable living and building practices, the development is targeting a 3 Pearl Estidama rating and a 3-star rating from Fitwel - the world’s leading certification system for optimising building health and wellness outcomes. 50% of both retail and residential parking will be EV ready, and residents will have several pedestrian routes to explore.
