A development of 15 new homes for local people in Stapleford has been completed on time and within budget by specialist affordable housing developers, MyPad.
Working on behalf of Futures Housing Group, MyPad has officially handed over the £2.5m development on the corner of Nottingham Road and Cemetery Road in Stapleford. The homes will be available for rent or shared ownership.
Tom Spinks, Director of MyPad, which is based in Beeston, explained: “This development has seen the transformation of a long-time vacant builders’ yard in Stapleford into affordable housing for the benefit of local people in the Broxtowe area.
“The demand for good quality affordable housing continues to grow and this is the latest development in our workstream to provide a complete service for registered providers and local authorities from land acquisition right through to the build.
“We are delighted to have handed over the development on time and within budget and look forward to seeing local families settle into their new homes in the near future.”
The mixture of two- and three-bedroom homes will be made available for people on Broxtowe Borough Council’s waiting list for council housing.
Ryan Dawson, Head of Planning and Economic Development at Broxtowe Borough Council commented: “Broxtowe Borough Council’s Planning department is pleased to finally see that this site has been brought forward for housing after years of trying to mediate its development.”
