The agreement follows recent planning approval for the redevelopment of Mell Square, which will be redeveloped as Holbeche Place. Plot one will include the design and construction of a residential-led development delivering 346 build-to-rent homes across four buildings of varying heights, alongside ground-floor commercial and amenity space.
Located within a busy town centre setting, the development will be delivered on a constrained site and will require the demolition of the existing multi-storey car park, alongside careful coordination with surrounding roads, neighbouring properties and live retail areas. Demolition and enabling works are expected to start in summer 2026.
Lisa Turley, development director at Muse, said: “With planning consent secured for the wider Holbeche Place masterplan and first phase we now want to kick start delivery and continue to build momentum.
“Holbeche Place is an opportunity to elevate and enhance Solihull town centre, with new homes, shops, restaurants, and public spaces. Graham is the right partner to support our ambition as we work with our partners at Solihull Council and across the town centre to bring forward the benefits of redevelopment as soon as possible.”
