Plans to redevelop a brownfield site in Cheddar into a new housing development are underway following the purchase of land at Steart Farm.
The Steart Farm housing development, which has recently been granted outlining planning permission, will look to bring 58 new homes to the Somerset area, 30% of which will be affordable housing.
The 5.8-acre brownfield site currently comprises former farm buildings and agricultural land.
Charlotte Goode, Regional Managing Director at Keepmoat Homes said: “Keepmoat Homes is incredibly pleased to have purchased land to transform Steart Farm into a high-quality housing development with a strong sense of community, fitting for the village of Cheddar.
“We are constantly striving to bring excellent houses to brilliant locations, and know that the Steart Farm development will do just that.
“As a leading UK home builder, we’re continually looking to expand our development range, helping to bring new purchase opportunities to buyers across the region, and welcome news regarding land available for purchase in the West Midland and South West area.”
A Reserved Matters planning application will be submitted later this year with a start on site planned for late 2022 with homes available mid-2023.
