Land deal to bring forward city homes

Hockley Developments is due to start work on its latest development, Lace Mills, on Palm Street in New Basford, Nottingham next week after completing the site purchase.

Phase 1 will include 12 apartments and four family houses and will be completed by December.

Phase 2, the larger phase, will include 31 flats is due to start in June and complete in Spring 2020.

Architectural manager, Ewan Cassell, said: “We are delighted to bring some much needed family housing to central Nottingham as we know from our regular discussions with Nottingham council there is a huge shortage. These will be made available, as per all our developments, on the Help to Buy scheme.

We look forward to starting phase 1 and launching phase 2 in June this year.

“As with our current developments we expect excellent demand, and look forward to bringing these to market in the near future.”
