We are celebrating a £40million investment into Great Harwood
We are celebrating the completion of our development on Harwood Lane in Great Harwood, now named ‘Lyndon Park’, which has created more than 200 new homes.
Keepmoat started on site in 2017, working with multiple partners to create 217 high-quality homes, including 44 affordable homes with Accent Housing and Heylo.
The newly created community represents a £40 million investment from the housebuilder, which specialises in transforming unused land into thriving new communities.
Peter Barlow, Regional Managing Director at Keepmoat North West, said: “The Keepmoat team is delighted to finalise the last few sales at Lyndon Park and bring significant investment to Great Harwood.
“The homes at Lyndon Park feature future proofing technologies including solar panels - which reduce carbon emissions by up to two-thirds compared to older housing stock. This not only helps residents save money on their bills, but also ensures they live in homes built for the future.
“At Keepmoat, we set out to build more than just homes - at Lyndon Park we created a new play area and significantly improved pedestrian links into the existing local community.”
Keepmoat is also a cornerstone employer in the North West, working with Lancashire Careers Hub to support careers education across the region. Throughout the delivery of Lyndon Park, the team has delivered countless site visits, attended construction career events and created and delivered a virtual construction workshop for more than 300 students.
Whilst under construction, the scheme also created ten apprenticeship vacancies, further bolstering the housebuilder’s efforts to boost opportunities for local people.
Melissa Toomey, Director of Sales at Home Reach, comments: "We’re pleased to have partnered with Keepmoat at Lyndon Park in Great Harwood to offer Home Reach in this exciting new community.
“Working with Keepmoat to deliver 18 Shared Ownership homes has allowed us to provide buyers with greater flexibility and choice in how they step onto the property ladder, at a time when affordability remains a challenge for many. Through Home Reach, buyers can purchase a share of a new home, with just a 5 percent deposit on their share, and pay rent on the remainder.
“This approach means that people who may have previously thought homeownership was out of reach are now able to consider high-quality new build homes in developments like Lyndon Park. We’re proud to have played a part in the success of Lyndon Park and look forward to seeing the community thrive as these new homes complete."
