We are working on a new development in Mid Sussex comprising of 20 two-bedroom flats and two one-bedroom flats which are designed to be fully wheelchair-accessible. The properties will be general needs housing, and two of the two-bedroom flats will be available for key worker shared ownership. Work began on site in March 2008 and is scheduled to finish in Autumn 2009.

Arun Road, Billingshurst

Our development at Arun Road consists of six three-bedroom eco-homes, built to meet Level 5 of the Code for Sustainable Homes. This means they will be 100% more energy efficient than standard building regulations. Ultimately, residents will enjoy greatly reduced energy bills, while the environment will benefit from far lower carbon emissions.

Environmentally-friendly features include ground source heat pumps, which transfer heat from the ground to the building. This will not only heat all the hot water needed, but will also run the homes’ under-floor heating.

Meanwhile, photo voltaic panels on the roof will convert sunlight into electricity, while a rain water harvesting system will provide water for flushing toilets. High levels of insulation and triple-glazed windows will ensure minimum heat loss.

The properties, all for affordable rents, are being built on the site of some old garages and will be complete by autumn 2009. The garages are being replaced with 12 landscaped parking spaces.

Rosebrook Court

Rosebrook Court in Southampton will consist of 33 new one and two-bedroom flats, 10 of which will be available for shared equity.

Rosebrook Court was originally a Saxon Weald retirement scheme, made up of hard-to-let bedsits, which we demolished and rebuilt to create the first purpose-built extra care scheme for the city. We also acquired one of the neighbouring buildings to maximise the number of properties we could develop.

In addition to the new rented and shared equity properties, there will also be three specialist supported housing properties, for those with learning disabilities. We have also built a day-centre, for use by both residents and the local community.

Work on site is currently in progress and is scheduled to be complete early in 2009.
