My only potential objection to this would be if having too many affordable homes detracts away from the current status/appeal/value of Warwick Gates.
You state that "this area is a very popular place to live and attracts people from other areas and regions as evidenced by higher than average house prices". Isn't that what makes this place appealing to those residents already here? You would not want to risk de-valuing houses in Warwick Gates and potentially losing those residents to other outside areas.
I would also be interested to know what proportion of your affordable housing plans will be social housing?
