ELAN HUNGRY FOR LAND

WITH the final home at Westminster Place now sold, Elan Homes is looking for land to satisfy demand for housing in and around Chester.

Two years after sales launched at the development, Elan’s role in the transformation of part of the former Saighton Camp site is almost complete with the final homeowner soon to move in.

Marie Morris, sales director for Elan Homes in the North, said: “At Elan we are proud to be playing our part in helping to reduce the housing shortage by building much needed new homes. We’ve been operating in and around Chester for several years and know from the success of Westminster Place and Riverside at the Racecourse that there’s a real demand in the area for quality built new homes in the city and surrounding area. We have now sold the final home at Westminster Place but are receiving enquiries from people who want to know where else we will be building. We are always looking for land with development potential and would be keen to hear from landowners to explore opportunities.”

The historic city of Chester is a much sought-after place to live and regularly features in guides to homebuyer hotspots, including the Sunday Times’ annual ‘best places to live’, thanks to its attractive centre, schools and access to glorious countryside are among the area’s key features.

Land director Andrew Morgan added: “Acquiring new sites is crucial if we are to continue to grow the business and satisfy consumer demand for housing. All forms of development land and any larger commercial premises will be of interest, including brownfield and greenfield opportunities with or without planning approval.

“We will consider sites with the potential to build 12 to 100 homes and will work with landowners to successfully navigate through the planning process. In devising development plans we always take in to account local housing market conditions, including what’s already available in the area, the facilities in the neighbourhood, who would want to live there and why, before creating schemes that will add value to the community.”

Anyone with land available with development potential is urged to contact Elan via the website https://www.elan-homes.co.uk/about-elan/land-enquiries/.
