If there\u2019s one thing about London, it\u2019s that new homes are almost\u00a0always being built.\u00a0As we speak,\u00a0there\u00a0are plans for an entire new town in west London<\/a>, 6,000 new homes in the northwest<\/a>, 900 in south London<\/a> and a whopping 20,000 in the southeast<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 and that just scratches the surface. Now,\u00a0it looks like there could be thousands of new homes coming to Wandsworth.<\/p>\n

The southwest London borough\u00a0has unveiled its \u2018growth plan\u2019<\/a>, mapping out its new \u2018growth corridor\u2019 \u2013 an area that has been specifically designed to boost economic development and population growth. One of its major promises\u00a0is that it\u2019ll build up to 14,400 new homes along that corridor over the next decade.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The plan highlights the\u00a0capacity for\u00a08,400 new homes to Nine Elms, 3,000 to Clapham Junction and 3,000 to Wandsworth Town, with the council pledging to\u00a0prioritise \u2018genuinely affordable homes for local people\u2019. It also says that it\u2019ll be able to slash living costs by refitting existing properties.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The\u00a0council\u2019s vision\u00a0also involves improving transport in the borough, with facelifts for\u00a0Clapham Junction, Wandsworth Town, Battersea Park and Queenstown Road stations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Howard Dawber, London\u2019s deputy mayor for business said: \u2018With strong existing infrastructure and real assets, including the UK\u2019s busiest interchange at Clapham Junction, Wandsworth has a major role to play in unlocking the inclusive and sustainable growth we need to see across London over the next decade.<\/p>\n

\u2018The mayor and I are committed to working with boroughs across the capital through the London Growth Plan to build a fairer and more prosperous city for all.\u2019<\/p>\n

There is already a \u2018Homes for Wandsworth\u2019 programme underway, which has seen more than 600 homes built in the area since November 2024 and is on track for 1,000 new council homes in the area by 2029.<\/p>\n
