Hive Homes is creating a real buzz across Greater Manchester, with its selection of high quality homes at affordable prices.
The multi-award winning Joint Venture organisation, funded by 10 Greater Manchester-based RPs (Great Places, Salix, Onward, Irwell Valley, Mosscare St Vincents, Bolton at Home, One Manchester, Southway, Wythenshawe and Trafford Housing Trust) together with the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) is gaining a reputation for its attention to detail and excellent customer service. And since the organisation was formed in 2018, it has worked tirelessly to create fantastic new homes across the Greater Manchester footprint.
Weaver’s Fold in Rochdale, for example, has breathed new life into a dilapidated site. The new 102-home development, with 85 three bedroom and 17 four bedroom homes, a mix of semi-detached and detached properties, is creating a new community on the site of a dilapidated car showroom that had laid dormant for eight years. The new development has been meticulously designed – both in terms of the quality of the homes but also in its layout that has been designed for future growth. There is also a 5.6-acre parcel of land towards the southern end of the development which the local council can utilise for the creation of a new school, should it be required in the future. As with any development, its location is key, and Weaver’s Fold’s hidden secret is where it is.
It’s situated in Castleton, just outside Rochdale town centre, which is close to some beautiful green spaces but with excellent links to Manchester city centre and everything that it offers. And across to the Bury Metropolitan region, Hive has started on-site to build 171 new homes across two new developments. At Roedeer Gardens in Bury, Hive Homes will build 81 three and four bed new homes with a selection of properties under the First Homes scheme by Bury Council, which prioritises first time buyers with a combined annual income of less than £80,000 per year.
Alongside the new homes, the local council will provide new changing and welfare facilities for Seedfield Juniors FC funded by Hive’s Section 106 contribution and will also create a new car park for the club which has its pitches adjacent to the site.
Hive Homes will also build 90 three and four bedroom homes, a mix of mews, semi-detached and detached, at Scholars Park in Radcliffe, the former home of the demolished grammar school, including some First Homes and affordable homes.
There are a number of new developments coming on stream in the New Year as Hive Homes looks to expand its reach and help people either take their first step on the property ladder or rightsizing into a perfect forever home.
