Bridges Fund Management and developer HUB have acquired Sandringham Mews, a 318-home consented co-living scheme in West London.

Bridges Fund Management and developer HUB have acquired Sandringham Mews, a 318-home consented co-living scheme in West London.

Situated in the Ealing Town Centre Conservation Area at the heart of Ealing’s vibrant and well-connected commercial and retail zone, the site will be transformed into new co-living homes plus shared amenity and ground floor retail.

This acquisition adds to HUB and Bridges’ growing pipeline of co-living projects, including Cornerstone and Assemblies in the City of London, Yardhouse in White City and Pines Way in Bath.

Currently a backland car park fronted by, the consented scheme will give the site a renewed purpose and bring it back into use. Designed to deliver high-quality homes whilst enhancing community integration with active street frontage, the development will also include a diverse range of internal and external communal spaces.

In line with HUB and Bridges’ commitment to creating homes that foster community cohesion, residents will benefit from shared amenities such as a communal kitchen, gym, cinema, co-working space, and sunken courtyards with biodiverse planting. The scheme also dedicates a generous portion of the site to public use, encouraging movement through the development.

Sustainability is at the core of the Sandringham Mews development.. The scheme is targeting a BREEAM ‘Excellent’ rating, with the potential to achieve ‘Outstanding’, exceeding current environmental planning requirements set by The London Plan and Ealing Council. In addition to being within walking distance of Ealing Broadway station, active travel will be supported with ample secure cycle storage.

Miles Keeley, Head of Acquisitions at HUB, commented: “Sandringham Mews marks another exciting acquisition for HUB and Bridges. Under consented plans, the scheme has enormous potential to reactivate this pocket of Ealing, complementing its existing commercial and retail spaces with high-quality homes that offer residents community, connectivity and an excellent lifestyle. This scheme continues HUB’s mission to transform underutilised and well-connected urban sites into living-led developments that enhance the area while meeting market demand for homes. It is an excellent example of co-living shaping sustainable and enriched neighbourhoods for the future.”

Simon Ringer, Head of Property Funds at Bridges, commented: “Co-living is an important part of the answer to the housing crisis in our major cities. With this Sandringham Mews development, we are taking an under-used site, in an area where there is a clear under-supply of housing, and transforming it into more than 300 sustainable homes – while also creating an asset that benefits the local community through new outdoor and retail space. We’re excited to see it come to life in the next few years.”
