Affordable housebuilder Adderstone Living has opened a new office in Leeds to expand into Yorkshire. The move aims to support growing demand for regionally based social housing development.
Founded by Stephen McCoy and Peter Galbraith, Adderstone Living works with major social housing providers such as Karbon Homes, Gentoo, and Places for People. The company offers land-led solutions, including site sourcing, scheme design, and planning approvals.
The Leeds office, located in Carrwood Park, will be led by regional director Rick Long, who brings extensive experience in residential housebuilding. The expansion follows strong growth and aligns with government efforts to address the housing shortage.
Adderstone Living is also expanding in the North West and recently launched a £16 million, 70-unit scheme in East Cowton. To support its regional diversification, the company is actively securing framework agreements, including a place on the Homes England Delivery Partner Panel (DPP).
Challenges such as planning delays and environmental regulations remain, but the company’s in-house planning team is working to mitigate disruptions and ensure project efficiency.
