Managing director Adnan Siddiqi said: “Stockport’s town centre is changing rapidly and Amstone is excited to be at the forefront of this with the largest single residential project in the town.

“We are bringing a truly landmark place-making scheme to the heart of the town close to a number of key amenities and the historic market square where residents can live, work and play.

“We intend to deliver a mixture of tenures of build to rent homes and homes for open market sale across a range of apartment and house types to cater for families, young people and elder residents wanting to be in close proximity to the fantastic amenities that Stockport has to offer.

“Our development will create a new vibrant residential community which will support the regeneration of Stockport and the growth of the local thriving independent scene and act as a catalyst for further growth in Stockport.”

Amstone snapped up the site in March 2021.
