Developer and social housing provider delivering dozens of affordable homes
Work is underway at an affordable housing development in Doncaster, which will see 57 homes built.
Social housing provider, Together Housing, is working with developer Wordsworth Properties to provide energy efficient homes in Balby.
The scheme off Cross Bank has been designed to support a range of housing needs. It comprises one, two, three, and four-bed homes built in a mix of terraced and semi-detached homes.
It is funded through the government’s Homes England scheme. Each property will be fitted with energy upgrades including solar panels, EV charging points and Air Source Heat Pumps.
In addition to 39 affordable homes for rent, the project is set to deliver 18 homes for shared ownership to be managed and sold via Together Homes, part of the Together Housing Group.
Councillor Glyn Jones, portfolio holder for housing and business, said: “As part of our five-year Housing Delivery Plan, we are committed to enhancing housing options for older residents, families and individuals with physical disabilities.
“These new homes align with our goals, ensuring that local communities benefit significantly.
“Designed with affordability and energy efficiency in mind, these homes will provide comfortable living while also prioritising sustainability.
“Through thoughtful development, we are not only meeting housing needs but also protecting and enhancing the natural environment for future generations.
“We are incredibly excited to see this project come to fruition and witness the positive impact it will have on the lives of local residents.”
Dai Howells, assistant director of development at Together Housing, added: “Cross Bank is shaping up to be a dynamic development.
“We’re passionate about developing communities for future generations and to have three housing types available and homes for shared ownership widens the market for more people.
“It’s been great working with Wordsworth Properties to deliver energy efficient homes that meet high quality standards and we’re eager to share the completed development with the local community in the coming year.”
