Up to 150 new homes to be built in Cornwall

Cornwall residents will be given a chance to design their own homes as the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA), Carillion-igloo and Coastline Housing have signed a legal agreement that lays the groundwork for up to 150 new and affordable homes to be built beside the Heartlands regeneration project at Trevenson Park, Pool.

The agreement includes proposals for between 50 and 60 Custom Build plots, which will offer people from across Cornwall the chance to select a home manufacturer and customise their dream home. The Custom Build process allows people to buy a plot of land, choose their preferred home manufacturer and work with them to create their dream home by choosing from a menu of options, a news report in the local business media suggests.

Furthermore, a mix of new and affordable homes, including accommodation for older people, would also be delivered as part of the project by Carillion-Igloo’s registered housing provider partner Coastline.

HCA Area Manager Paul Britton commented: “This important project continues the successful regeneration of Trevenson Park, which is transforming this former mining community by bringing new homes, jobs and prosperity to this part of Cornwall. The new homes planned for this site would make a significant difference to the area and the families who live there, and the Custom Build element taps into a strong demand for people to design and build a home of their own.”

“The HCA has worked hard with its partners to get the project to this stage, developing a vision for the site and bringing partners on board. We remain committed to helping to turn the ambitious vision for this site into a reality.”

Any residential developer will likely have to bolster its staff in order to keep up with the higher demand or employ a large number of sub-contractors.
