Miller Homes concludes purchase of land to create new Oldham housing stock

Housebuilder, Miller Homes, has completed the purchase of a site in Oldham, for an undisclosed sum, which will create 42 three- and four-bedroom homes.

Briar View has already been awarded full planning consent for the area off Denbigh Drive. House types will include the Harrison, Carson, Cunningham, and Denham.

Work on site will begin imminently with the first homes expected to be available to reserve this summer.

The show home, along with the first homes ready for occupation, will follow towards the end of the year.

Briar View will be in close proximity to a number of local primary and secondary schools and is located just under four miles from Oldham town centre, with links to Manchester and Liverpool for commuters.

Denbigh Drive is also just over a 10 minute drive to Oldham Metrolink station, which offers routes to a number of different locations regionally and nationwide.

Miller Homes will contribute £100,000 to the council towards the enhancement of existing open space provision at High Crompton Park, Rochdale Road, Shaw.

Jonathan Steggles, land director for Miller Homes, said: “I’m very proud of the team for helping to get this land purchase over the line, we recognise Oldham as a very aspirational town with a charming and close knit community.

“We’re looking forward to becoming a part of it and supporting local schools and organisations as we go.”
