Project Detail

The Gate - Waterside Village, Loughborough

Large Residential Scheme of the Year Award 2022 Finalist

The Gate is a new building of 64 luxury one- and two-bedroom apartments. It joined its historic sister building The Mill to complete phase two of the Waterside Village gateway hub into Loughborough.

Waterside Village connects the railway station with the town centre, enabling neighbouring business expansion. It has created confidence for other developers to further local regeneration.

The Gate’s structure is unusual as it is constructed from five storeys of load bearing masonry. An industrial look was replicated by including exposed internal red brickwork, high ceilings, large windows and metal columns.

Project Overview

The Gate needed to complement its converted Waterside Village neighbour The Mill, which dates from 1889. The Gate was designed to harmonise with The Mill but have its own modern identity.

The Gate features a fully equipped gymnasium, a swimming pool, BBQ area, bike store and canal-side boat moorings.

There is a concierge service based in the open plan reception area and shared communal working, socialising and eating areas.
