Details
Daedalus Waterfront provides redevelopment opportunity within the
Solent Enterprise Zone, in a prominent position overlooking the Solent and the
Isle of Wight.
The site includes attractive former naval buildings suitable for refurbishment/
conversion. Significant public investment has been made into Daedalus,
including new infrastructure, to support and service its redevelopment.
Whether developed in whole or parts, the development of the site provides
a unique opportunity to create a sense of place benefitting from the heritage
of the site and integrating with the wider community of Lee-on-the-Solent.
The site is to the immediate south of Solent Airport alongside the existing control tower. To the south is the Solent which is accessed via a car park which is within this disposal and onwards to a slipway.
Homes England is seeking interest from parties with a clear vision to transform
some or all of Daedalus Waterfront into a waterfront
mixed-use development including exciting opportunities for commercial, leisure,
elderly living, retail, industrial
and enabling residential
use.
Planning
Application reference: 11/00282/OUT
Planning status: Outline Planning Permission
Planning authority: Gosport Borough Council
Application details:
The planning context to date is provided by the existing outline planning approval and Daedalus Supplementary Planning Document (SPD).
The site is identified as employment led mixed-use with the SPD identifying up to 85,000 sq m of employment space and 350 new homes (320 of which are being or have been developed separately). Critical components of the vision are the delivery of employment space and bringing heritage buildings back into use. Some limited additional residential development beyond the current planning policy, that enables delivery of this vision, may be acceptable to the Local Planning Authority.
The whole of Daedalus Waterfront sits within Gosport Borough
Council’s boundary.
Homes England has agricultural land it is using to mitigate
nitrogen neutrality requirements on other sites. There may
be capacity to accommodate some additional mitigation
required for this site.
