Doncaster-based housebuider Keepmoat is to invest more than £50 million in creating a housing development in the Wiltshire town of Warminster following exchange of contracts on a 24-acre plot.
Work is due to start later this year at the development – now named Cley Hill View – to deliver 227 homes, of which at least 30 per cent will be affordable homes.
As part of the significant £50 million commitment to the Wiltshire area, Keepmoat will also create new green spaces, and play areas alongside pedestrian, road and cycle routes to and from surrounding communities.
Expected to be completed in 2028, the development will offer a variety of much-needed multi-tenure one, two, three, and four-bedroomed homes, catering to first-time buyers, working professionals, and families.
Ben Leather, Regional MD at Keepmoat West Midlands, said: “Keepmoat is excited to announce contracts have successfully been exchanged on Cley Hill View. Acquisition of this land highlights Keepmoat’s commitment to providing quality homes in the South West of England and aligns with our ambitious growth plans in the region.
“With Wiltshire experiencing a population increase of 8.4 percent from 2011 to 2021 , the demand for housing has grown significantly. We’re pleased to be contributing towards addressing the region’s housing shortage.
“Keepmoat’s Cley Hill View development will not only provide new homes, it will also create a thriving new community. In addition, we will be creating strong employment, apprentice and training opportunities for local contractors and labourers.”
