Joyce and Snells Estate Regeneration

Client: Enfield Council and Inner Circle Consulting

London

Executive summary from entrant:

Joyce and Snell's proves council-led regeneration works at scale. Enfield is delivering 2,028 homes—over half affordable—on an estate where decline had eroded buildings and community confidence. A 78.5% ballot result came from rigorous engagement and intelligent phasing that puts residents first. Phase 1's 270 affordable homes enable early decant, reducing temporary accommodation pressure. The scheme balances viability with purpose: later phases cross-subsidise affordable housing while civic infrastructure and parkland create lasting value. This isn't aspirational placemaking—it's strategic, deliverable regeneration that tackles housing need, maintains public control, and sets a replicable precedent for local authorities nationwide.
