Brownfield Regeneration
We believe that reviving underused urban land is the most sustainable form of development, delivering good green homes where they are needed most, and driving the growth and productivity our country needs.
Regeneration at Scale
Berkeley is the only major UK homebuilder focussed on long term brownfield regeneration sites. We’re taking forward 32 of the country’s most challenging sites, including derelict gasworks and industrial estates that few developers have the capacity of expertise to take on.
Unlocking Potential
Each of our 32 major sites is being transformed into a sustainable neighbourhood with over 1,000 private and affordable homes, alongside new public infrastructure, amenities and the green open space a strong community needs.
Why Urban Regeneration Matters
"Our brownfield-first approach will not only ramp up housebuilding, but also create more jobs, deliver much needed infrastructure, and boost economic growth across the country."
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer
Meeting Housing Needs
Our sites are concentrated in London and other severely undersupplied towns and cities where the housing crisis is at its worst.
Driving Economic Growth
Our sites are located in established urban economies where new investment delivers greater growth and productivity benefits, and making best use of existing infrastructure.
Regreening Towns and Cities
We bring nature and biodiversity back to neglected urban sites, creating green and welcoming neighbourhoods and helping to preserve the countryside.
Skills and Social Mobility
Our projects create a lasting source of skills training and jobs within urban communities. We work with local councils and communities to ensure local people in greatest need can access these opportunities.
Making the Most of Brownfield Land
We work in partnership with other leading brownfield regeneration specialists to make the case for a brownfield first approach to housing delivery and to help resolve the challenges involved.
