Davenport Park Apartments sold to Stockport Homes Group

Marc Freeman, Director at Clowes Developments was responsible for the development of the site on Buxton Road, Stockport from a formerly run-down hotel into 39 one and two bed-roomed stylish apartments and has subsequentially sold the development to a local housing group.

Despite the challenges of COVID-19, developers Clowes Developments and builders, Roe Developments delivered the project on time and according to schedule. The completed site has since been sold to Stockport Homes Group for an undisclosed sum.

Stockport Homes is an Arms Length Management Organisation (ALMO). In 2005 the group took over the management of 11,500 Council homes in Stockport. Stockport Homes is a multi-award-winning not-for-profit organisation that delivers excellent housing services to its customers offering a wide range of ownership options including shared ownership, private rent, or social housing. Davenport Park Apartments have been purchased to complement the Group’s wider portfolio.

Ken Lee, Chair of the Viaduct board, added

 We are delighted to have bought these fantastic apartments that Clowes Developments have built. We will be selling them on a shared ownership basis, which will provide affordable housing and help first times buyers get onto the property ladder.

The brand-new apartment block is spread over six floors with lift access, private gated entrance and landscaped communal rear gardens. It has a range of modern facilities including EV charging points, low energy LED lighting, high speed broadband, secure bicycle storage and premium fixtures and fittings in each apartment.

Not only does the development provide quality living solutions for its occupiers but it also benefits from excellent location and transport links. Davenport Park Apartments border Davenport Park Conservation area and is just a short distance from Davenport Train Station which provides links to London Euston within 2 hours, the apartments are just over a mile away from Stockport town centre providing residents with an abundance of local and convenient amenities and finally, Manchester airport is only 10 miles away.

Marc Freeman, Director at Clowes Developments commented,

On behalf of the Group, I am delighted to complete the sale of DPA to a local housing group. It comes as no surprise that the apartments with their combination of hi-spec finish and excellent location, are already attracting a wealth of interest from potential occupiers. We wish Stockport Homes Group all the best with the most recent addition to their portfolio.
