A second company is set to join the development work for 'one of the largest housing and employment developments in the East Midlands'.
Redrow East Midlands has been announced as the second company set to develop new homes at Fairham, the new £800 million neighbourhood on the outskirts of Clifton.
The company has submitted a planning application to Rushcliffe Borough Council for 93 new homes on the first phase of the development, situated off Nottingham Road to the north of the 606-acre site.
The ambitious project will offer a mix of housing types, including one to five-bedroom houses with front and rear gardens built across a number of streets and cul de sacs - with 10 per cent being affordable homes.
Redrow is looking to start work on-site before the end of this year, with delivery of the first homes available in 2022.
The main contractor, Winvic Construction Ltd, has been appointed for the first phase of infrastructure work - and groundworks and exploratory work have been ongoing at the site since September last year.
Fairham is a long-term investment being made by Derbyshire-based Clowes Developments in partnership with Homes England, the Government's housing accelerator.
Land and Planning Director with Clowes Developments, Robert Hepwood, said: ‘We welcome Redrow to Fairham and look forward to them making good progress on the first new homes for this new neighbourhood.
"We are now starting to see increased activity across the site and over the coming twelve months we will be progressing work at pace by working closely with our development partners to bring more high-quality homes and infrastructure to fruition.’
Martyn Pask, Managing Director at Redrow, said: "By bringing high quality, premium homes to Fairham we are helping to set the standard for the development.
"Working in partnership with Clowes Developments and Homes England, we are ensuring our contribution to this impressive new neighbourhood for Nottingham is both sustainable and desirable.’
