Persimmon Homes North Midlands has completed the purchase of land to unlock a housing development in Newbold Verdon, Leicestershire.
The site will deliver up to 239 new homes. A significant portion of the land will be kept as public open space for the people of Newbold Verdon, helping to enhance the area’s green space and biodiversity.
Along with the boost to local housing needs, the scheme will bring with it a range of community benefits – including a total of up to £2.1m pledged towards the nearby area. Within this amount includes over £1m towards education and £160,000 towards healthcare improvements.
Dan Endersby, Managing Director at Persimmon Homes North Midlands, said: “We’re proud to have completed the purchase of land to deliver up to 239 new homes in Newbold Verdon. Our upcoming new community will bring a wide range of new benefits to the area, including major improvements to local roads, public open spaces, healthcare, and education.
“Of course, what we do is about so much more than building quality homes. This development will not only generate significant job opportunities throughout the lifespan of the project but will also leave a lasting legacy of community benefits for the people of Newbold Verdon and the surrounding areas.”
