Housing regeneration specialist Lovell has been chosen by North
Lanarkshire Council for a £2.2 million project to build 20
new affordable homes at Holytown, near Motherwell, North
Lanarkshire.
The scheme marks the first stage of the council’s £30
million new house building programme to deliver over 200 new
homes.
The Holytown development will create ten three-bedroom houses, six
two-bedroom houses and four two-bedroom flats on land at Spruce Way
and Main Street. The properties will all be for affordable rent and
will be completed in April 2010.
North Lanarkshire Council Deputy Provost, Jim Robertson, said:
“The need for good quality, affordable housing is needed now
more than ever and we are pleased to be playing our part in meeting
the needs of our local communities.”
“We’re delighted to be working in partnership with
North Lanarkshire Council to deliver high-quality new affordable
homes for the community,” added Lovell regional director Alan
Taylor.
