Residential Redevelopment - Land at Trent Road, Bulkington

WPD a subsidiary of Warwickshire Property & Development Group (WPDG) is the arms length development delivery vehicle of Warwickshire County Council (WCC).

The company is looking to ultimately appoint an experienced residential property developer or main contractor to deliver all services associated with the redevelopment of this vacant and surplus development site.

Outline planning consent, with all matters reserved, except for access for development of up to 30 dwellings is currently being sought. The planning application submitted to Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council (the LPA) has a target determination date of November 2024 - consent since granted.

Main contractor services required but not limited to the following:

• Working up reserved matters planning consent following the entering into of a Pre-Construction Services Agreement (PCSA).
• Discharge of relevant planning conditions required to facilitate scheme delivery.
• Undertake all required preparatory works on site including constructing any temporary and permanent scheme access, site clearance, cut & fill, establishing site levels, installation of drainage, power, water and other services as required, construction of the houses from foundation until fit out to an agreed specification so that the completed house are ready for market sale, and affordable dwellings are packaged for sale to a registered provider.
• Establishing a sales suite.
• The completed houses are to be constructed to achieve minimum EPC B.
• Completion of all necessary external works, road adoption and technical approvals for utilities connections.
• All necessary aftersales requirements and satisfaction of snagging and rectifications within the 12 month rectification period.

For the avoidance of doubt WPD will take all sales risk and fund the entirety of the of the PCSA and subject to satisfactory completion of the PCSA parties can then enter into a JCT D&B contract for the construction works which will be fully funded by WPD.

Although WPD are taking the sales risk, a contracting partner who understand the market, setting up a sales presence and utilising in house routes to market can be considered as a proposal within any tender return in addition to 'typical' contractor related services.
