We’re really pleased to be working on a brand new housing development in Plymstock, aiming at building ten sustainable homes ranging from two- to four-bedrooms.
Broadland Green will offer a mix of terrace, coach house, semi-detached and detached homes, designed to be adapted over time to changing requirements of owners.
A big selling point at Broadland Green is their ambition of being energy efficient to live in, also having a contemporary look with a focus on the quality of the living environment.
Architects are taking design inspiration from the flexibility, simplicity of form and use of materials that is characteristic of Plymouth’s 19th century housing.
The homes will be built around a central green space, which will be a signature of the development.
The work has already started on the building of ten brand new, sustainable homes in Plymstock.
The spacious two, three and four bedroomed properties are being built on site of the former Morley Youth Centre, off Broadland Gardens.
Heated with modern, energy-efficient technology, to help achieve low carbon living, particular attention has been paid to their design, so that they are adaptable and sustainable.
All of the homes will be available for sale on the open market, with work expected to be completed by the end of this year.
Local contractors Classic Builders have been selected for the build following a competitive tender process.
Director Fred Bennetton said: “Everyone at Classic Builders is committed to creating long-term legacies for each of our projects – especially those in our home city.
“To achieve this, we’re employing Plymouth based tradespeople and supply chain partners to share the project’s economic opportunities and create a lasting sense of local pride.”
This development is funded through the Council’s Plan for Homes Investment Fund. Upon completion, the funding, plus any surplus or profit from the sale of the homes, will be repaid, back into Plan for Homes for the provision of housing elsewhere in the city.
The One Public Estate Team has worked with the Council and provided funding for upfront costs to unlock the land and bring forward homes as part of the Brownfield Land Release Fund. This has enabled the Council to accelerate the release of land for new homes, meeting local needs.
Paul Britton, who is the Regional Programme Manager for the SW, said: “It’s really positive that this site is now able to provide much needed homes in Plymouth”.
The development will provide a range of two, three and four bedroom family homes and are currently for sale through us here at Lang, Town and Country.
