Two housing developments in Bradford have been completed from housebuilder Keepmoat, delivering 603 energy efficient properties.
Both schemes were delivered by the developer in partnership with Bradford Council and three local housing associations to regenerate almost 70 acres of brownfield land.
In Eccleshill, the housebuilder has transformed a former quarry site off Harrogate Road to create 311 two, three and four-bedroom homes. Now named ‘Vision’, the new homes have energy efficient technology and accessibility to local amenities and transport links.
Meanwhile, in Allerton, the housebuilder has created a further 292 new homes at its ‘Pinnacle’ development off Cote Lane, alongside creating new public open space and improving local highways. Keepmoat has also contributed £1.5 million toward education infrastructure across the city.
Nigel Robson, land & partnerships director at Keepmoat, Yorkshire West, said: “At Keepmoat, we believe that our responsibility goes beyond building homes. By prioritising our partnerships and creating community spaces, we’re proud to deliver more than just new homes.
“We’re committed to transforming communities and improving the lives of local people. The completion of these developments reflects our ongoing goal to increase the supply of quality housing in Bradford – these sites have been developed with long-term sustainability and local need in mind.”
Both Bradford developments were delivered in partnership with multiple local housing associations including Incommunities, Vico Homes and Accent Homes – delivering a total of 119 homes available through affordable schemes.
Cllr Alex Ross-Shaw, Bradford Council executive member for regeneration, planning and transport, said: “Delivered with Keepmoat and key partners, the completion of over 600 energy efficient houses, built on brownfield land, is a major step forward for Bradford district.
“These developments are testament to the council’s vision and Keepmoat’s commitment to producing good quality housing and communities with green spaces alongside investment in the required appropriate infrastructure.”
