Overview of the programme
We are carrying out an ambitious major works programme to council-owned properties and residential buildings throughout the borough. This is aimed at bringing all housing up to the decent homes standard (external link as every resident deserves a home that is warm, safe and secure.
The Noel Park estate has been included as part of the programme, with a schedule of works aimed at making significant improvements to council tenant flats and their blocks including homes owned by leaseholders. An overall budget of £21m has been allocated to the programme.
Since the programme began in 2015, a number of works have been completed or are currently in process of completion.
These include:
- Repairs and improvements to the buildings including new doors, windows, roofs and electrical wiring
- Council tenant flats will receive new bathrooms and kitchens, as well as other important internal works
Project update
The final stage of the improvement programme, which is now underway, includes 243 properties around Gladstone Avenue, Moselle Avene, Farrant Avenue and Morely Avenue. As well as internal and external works, these properties require new rear bathroom extensions to replace older structures that were constructed in the 1970s and are now well beyond their useful life.
We have completed the following work on properties in the area:
- 50 brand new completed kitchens have been installed in local council homes across Noel Park. Dozens more are currently being fitted
- More than 100 homes have had surveys completed in preparation for their new bathroom extensions
- More than 50 homes have had electrical and other mechanical improvements completed
- We are currently working on more than 40 other properties to complete these important upgrades
Construction has now begun on the first bathroom extensions. Residents who require these extensions in their homes will be contacted directly by our team.
Individual road updates
Farrant and Moselle Avenues: manufacturing has begun on the new bathroom extensions for all 37 homes on Farrant Avenue and Moselle Avenue that require this important work. All residents should have been contacted by a member of the team to discuss the required construction work.
If residents in these properties have any further questions, please contact: noelpark@haringey.gov.uk
Gladstone Avenue: planning materials have been submitted to the council’s planning department for the works on properties in Gladstone Avenue that require new bathroom extensions. We will be in touch with residents in these properties when a timetable is available for the installation of the new extensions.
Resident steering group
We are committed to working in partnership with residents to ensure the works at Noel Park meet the needs of the local community. To help achieve this goal, we will be launching the Noel Park Major Works Steering Group in autumn 2022 which will provide advice and feedback on how the works are progressing.
The Group will meet every 6 weeks on a weeknight evening for an hour. We are looking for 6 council tenants and 3 leaseholders to join the Steering Group and are particularly keen to hear from volunteers from Moselle Avenue and Farrant Avenue, as we already have a number of participants from Gladstone Avenue.
If you are interested, please email: noelpark@haringey.gov.uk
Leaseholder contributions and engagement
With all major works projects, leaseholders are being asked to contribute to the cost of the works on the Noel Park estate which is being conducted on buildings where Haringey Council is the freeholder. The cost of improving council tenant properties is not included in this contribution and is funded in its entirety by the council. Leaseholders’ obligations to pay for these works are laid out in their lease.
We acknowledge that the estimated costs for the works on the final phase of the Noel Park estate programme are in some cases very high. This is partly caused by the complexity and scale of the work required to replace the bathroom extensions which are now well beyond their useful life and are suffering from increasing numbers of defects.
To improve the service offered to leaseholders in the Noel Park area, We have agreed to offer leaseholders improved repayment options. All leaseholders should have been contacted about the individual options open to them. If you have any questions please contact the Leasehold Services team at leaseholdservices@haringey.gov.uk or call 020 8489 5611 - open Monday to Friday 8.45am to 5pm.
