Purchased with outline planning permission for up to 200 homes, Hill will now embark upon an engagement programme with residents and the local authority to design a community-focused development tailored to local needs. Hill’s plans include a diverse range of high-quality, sustainable new homes featuring one and two-bedroom apartments and two to five-bedroom houses designed as a landscape-led development prioritising a large green public open space at the heart of the project. More than a third of the homes will be allocated for affordable housing.

Andy Hill OBE, Group Chief Executive of The Hill Group, commented: "This well-located land provides an ideal opportunity for The Hill Group to deliver high-quality modern accommodation that helps address housing demand within the Billericay and wider Basildon area. We’re excited to bring forward a project that improves local infrastructure and enhances the natural environment while providing much-needed sustainable new homes to the region."
Previously under private ownership and left undeveloped, Hill will transform the land to provide an attractive new suburban neighbourhood designed to foster a sense of community and wellbeing among residents. Hill’s plans will prioritise outdoor space for all homes, with a garden to each house, a balcony or terrace area for each apartment, and all properties will include designated parking and cycle storage.
