Land Acquired For Over 250 Homes In West Lancashire

Construction News Image
UK developer Anwyl Homes is set to take its first venture into West Lancashire as part of wider housing development in the area.

The firm has acquired circa 20 acres of land on Liverpool Road South from Crompton Property Developments Ltd. This will see its Lancashire business deliver 267 homes as part of the Yew Tree Farm development in Burscough.

The wider Yew Tree Farm development will eventually compromise 580 homes, a care home, community centre and parkland along with plans for retail and industrial units including a soft play centre. The new neighbourhood also includes a potential school site.

John Grime, managing director of Anwyl Homes Lancashire, said: "Acquiring land at Yew Tree Farm is a major milestone for us. It's a key strategic development site for West Lancashire and gives Anwyl the potential for more than five years of production in this one location.

"Known as Priory Gardens, our development will provide a boost to the local housing supply. It will also add to Anwyl's continued growth in this, our 90th anniversary year."

Priory Gardens will feature a wide mix of one to four-bedroom properties, including apartments, bungalows, mews, semi-detached and detached houses. There will be 94 affordable homes, equivalent to 35% of the development.

Anwyl will also provide an electric vehicle charging point for every home at Priory Gardens

A number of landscaped swales, ponds/wetlands are being created as part of the development, which will also include a new park and landscaped public open space. 

Subject to planning approval, work will begin on site this summer with the first homes due to be released for sale later in the year.

The first properties will be ready to move into in early 2021 and the entire development complete by 2026.
