Over 170 new homes on the way in Lincolnshire village

Work has begun on a 172-home residential development in Sibsey, Lincolnshire.

The scheme on Millers Walk is local housebuilder Chestnut Homes’ second in the village. Up to 15% of the properties will be provided as affordable housing.

The first phase of the development will comprise 39 two to five-bedroom homes.

Helene Key, sales manager at Chestnut Homes, said: “Sibsey is a fantastic village that has lots to offer for anyone who chooses to call it home. Not surprising then, that we’ve already received a lot of interest for our Millers Walk neighbourhood which now has a waiting list.

“This isn’t the first time we’ve built in Sibsey. Our Church Walk neighbourhood launched there in 2002. That also proved to be very popular for househunters looking to take advantage of the village’s stunning farmland views and lovely community.”

The first homes are expected to hit the market in the spring.
