Work begins on £33m housing scheme

Avant Homes West Yorkshire has started construction on a 12-acre site in Keighley to deliver 124 homes with a gross development value (GDV) of around £33m.

Located on Shann Lane, the development will comprise a mix of three and four-bedroom homes.

Called Odette’s Point, the development received planning permission in January this year. The overall build programme is estimated to take about three years.

Avant Homes has also committed to a community contribution of £300,000 towards local affordable housing and education.

The first homes are set to be ready for occupation this November.

 Avant Homes regional chairman, Scott Varley, said: “We know there is a strong demand for high quality, new build homes in Keighley, so we are very pleased to start work at Odette’s Point.

“Having also recently started work at our 53-home Croftside Quarter development in Cullingworth, we are committed to providing these much-needed homes within the Bradford district.”

Avant Homes West Yorkshire currently has eight live developments ranging from Wakefield to Waverley with more due to start.

The Avant Homes Group currently operates across the Midlands, north of England and Scotland and has a medium-term strategic objective to sell more than 6,000 new homes per annum.
