Further land deal success in the North East

We’re excited to share that we’ve finalised another land deal in the North East. This success comes only a few weeks after we announced that we had secured deals for three new sites in the region, which will see us delivering 635 new homes.

This fourth deal secures an additional 9.7 acres of land in Alnwick, which we’ve purchased from Northumberland Estates.

Colin Barnes, of Northumberland Estates Said: “We’re very pleased to have agreed another land deal with Story Homes. We have built a great relationship with the housebuilder and we are confident that they will continue to deliver high quality homes in Northumberland.”

Earlier this month we announced that we had successfully finalised land deals for three new sites, which will allow us to move forward with our plans to deliver new homes in Durham, Darlington and Eaglescliffe. This fourth deal further supports our aspirational growth plans in the region.

Stuart Morgan, North East Land Director said: “I’m delighted that we have concluded yet another land deal in the region. Riverbrook Gardens is proving to be extremely popular, so it’s great that we have an opportunity to extend the development with an additional 60 homes.”

This new phase of Riverbrook Gardens will include a range of two to five-bedroom high quality new homes, including another nine affordable properties, which will be made available to those with a local connection to the area.

The extension to Riverbrook Gardens will see us developing the site in Alnwick for the next 5 years, securing longer term employment opportunities for local sub-contractors and the supply chain, whilst also contributing to the local economy both during construction and after the new homes have been occupied by residents.
