Plans to build 68 new homes in North Yorkshire have been given the green light by the local council.
The plan will see North of England affordable house builder Adderstone Living partner with northern housing association Karbon Homes to deliver a mix of one, two, three and four bedroomed affordable properties on a plot of land at Birkby Lane, East Cowton, near Hambleton in North Yorkshire. The 3.2 hectare site will be close to existing residential housing and forty percent of the overall site area will be kept as open space to retain the existing rural character of the area.
“Indeed, the delivery of social housing has never been more important than at present with commercial pressures on the sector to deliver high quality, added value schemes in places where people want to live and build communities.” The project comes as the Government continues to push for the delivery of new homes to meet the chronic housing shortage and arrest the decline in the affordability of home ownership.
