Co-living developer Re:shape has exchanged contracts to buy the remaining parts of the former Ashley House masterplan in Tottenham Hale from Notting Hill Genesis’ strategic asset programme.

The co-living developer emerged as the preferred bidder for the site, which is capable of delivering more than 1,000 multi-tenure beds alongside complimentary commercial uses. The deal was brokered by CBRE.

The scheme will add around 520 co-living homes into Project Haven, Re:shape’s London-based co-living platform. The platform is aimed at delivering, managing and operating over 2,000 modern homes.

For Tottenham Hale, this project will provide a co-living and social housing-led neighbourhood extension with the optionality for different operators and registered providers to co-design their own development proposals.

In March, Green Street News revealed that Re:shape begun the hunt for a joint venture partner to help build out its £680m, 1,554-unit London development pipeline. Savills has been appointed to help it source around £200m of institutional equity to develop four sites, as Re:shape positions itself to become one of the UK’s largest co-living platforms in the UK. 

Charlie Gayner, founding partner at Re:shape, said: “London’s housing crisis is often framed as a question of volume – it’s not. It’s a question of relevance. We are still building – when we build at all – as if people are buying homes in their early thirties and settling into static lives. The reality is completely different. Renting is long-term. Mobility is higher. Expectations are higher. And yet the product has barely evolved.

“What Tottenham Hale allows us to do is continue to step away from that outdated model and deliver something that reflects demand – professionally managed, flexible living, at scale, and across multiple tenures. That’s where the market is heading, whether the system catches up or not.”

Dan Lutterodt, investment partner at Re:shape, added: “There is no shortage of capital looking at residential. What there is a shortage of is product that can absorb it at scale. Single assets don’t solve that problem. Platforms do.

“Tottenham is an important piece of that – not just because of the volume, but because it reinforces the repeatability of what we’re building. A pipeline that is planned, structured, and capable of being delivered in a way institutional capital understands. We expect to add further sites in the near term. The direction of travel is very clear.”
