Vistry Group, the provider of affordable mixed-tenure homes, has completed a deal to build 146 houses and apartments in Wellingborough in partnership with global investment manager Man Group’s Community Housing team.
The development at Glenvale Park is set to become a community of one and two-bedroom maisonettes, and two, three and four-bedroom homes. The 146 homes will provide a range of tenures. The first 75 homes delivered will offer social rent and shared ownership homes, supported by Homes England.
Situated to the north of Wellingborough, the 7.8-acre site forms part of the wider 3,000-home Glenvale Park sustainable urban extension scheme. This will include 675 affordable dwellings plus a 25,000m² business park which will incorporate a new local centre with retail amenities, new communal hub, two new primary schools, a nursery and extensive parkland.
The new homes have been designed to outperform current building regulation requirements and achieve a minimum rating of EPC B whilst maximising the use of sustainable timber during the manufacturing process.
Having taken over the site from Ilke, Vistry will convert the modular house designs into sustainable timber frame homes using modern methods of construction. The timber frame panels will be produced locally at the Vistry Works factory
