Dozens of homes destined for village site

House builder Beal Homes is going back to its roots for its latest development.

It will construct Holderness Chase, a development of 64 two, three and four-bedroom homes in the village of Preston, east of Hull.

The £14.5m scheme will mark a return for Beal to its beginnings in Holderness, where the business was founded 53 years ago and where it delivered its very first project, building two shops and a house, in nearby Hedon.

The company is expected to launch Holderness Chase in the New Year, with construction due to begin in spring 2022 and the first residents likely to move in by the end of the year.

Sue Waudby, Beal sales and marketing director, said: “We are delighted to be returning to our roots in the Holderness area for a new development for the first time in many years.

“This is a very exciting development in a highly-attractive location. It offers the appeal of village life, in a setting surrounded by countryside, while being close to Hull, with excellent road links to the city and beyond.”

Beal land director, Chris Murphy, added: “With the Beal family’s roots in Holderness, we’re excited to be moving forward with a development on the company’s home patch.

“We have a very strong track record of successful developments in Holderness, going back more than half a century, but this will be our first in the area for over 15 years.

“We have a strong pipeline of land in desirable locations, which enables us to bring forward developments such as these to meet the strong need and demand for high-quality new homes in popular communities like Preston.”
