A £15m investment is set to transform abandoned brownfield land in West Bridgford at the hands of Doncaster-based developer Keepmoat.
The housebuilder acquired the site off Wilford Lane, which formerly housed a disused restaurant and rifle range, in 2020 and subsequently secured planning to regenerate the land with 90 homes.
The site, which saw a show home launch this summer, will deliver an enhanced specification of energy efficient homes – a new type of offering for the housebuilder, which typically creates homes perfect for first-time-buyers.
Robin McGinn, Land & Partnerships Director at Keepmoat, East Midlands said: “We’re pleased to be regenerating a disused piece of land at the heart of West Bridgford that has so much culture and diversity within the existing area.
“Considering the already established community we’re committed to creating new homes that will fit seamlessly within the existing landscape. We are also investing in the local road infrastructure to provide valuable, convenient access to local amenities including schools, restaurants, cafes, gyms and the tram network.”
The development will be called Chateau Mews in a nod to the name of the restaurant which used to occupy the site.
