The reason why high street chain John Lewis is building hundreds of new homes

John Lewis is preparing to construct hundreds of new rental homes in west and south-east London, with the aim of housing key workers such as nurses and teachers.

This initiative marks the next stage in the John Lewis Partnership's plans to build approximately 1,000 "build-to-rent" homes in West Ealing and Bromley in London, as well as Reading.

The new homes will be furnished with John Lewis furniture and will be situated near new flagship Waitrose shops and cafes. The properties will also feature amenities such as a roof garden, co-working spaces, and a communal gym.
