A launch event heralded the partnership between Derby City Council, the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA), Kier and Nottingham Community Housing Association (NCHA) to bring forward this award-winning scheme which has set the standard for exceptional design and quality.
The HCA and Derby City Council appointed KPH as preferred developer almost 2 years ago to work with the healthcare service providers on the site to ensure the new scheme meshed with the provision of essential services. Working alongside Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, Derby Hospital NHS Trust and East Midlands Ambulance Service, the Kier team developed the designs to create a new neighbourhood which enhances the immediate surroundings and complements the existing landscape features such as the tree-lined crescent. It also brings back into use a large area of open space to the north of the site for leisure and an ecology area.

The project – worth £100 million over 7 years – offers contemporary 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5-bedroom new homes located on the western side of Derby approximately 2.5km to the south-west of Derby city centre. The beautiful properties include a range of affordable homes for rent by NCHA and to buy, in addition to a planned new business park that will support 450 new jobs for the area.
