Lovell has been selected as the preferred developer to deliver a new design and build scheme on the former council office site in Pontllanfraith.
Pobl Group has chosen Lovell as their preferred partner to build 123 new homes the site, including a mix of 40 one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom homes for open market sale, 40 affordable shared ownership homes and 43 affordable homes for social rent.
The development – which will be known as Chartist Garden Village – has been designed around the principles of a Garden Village.
Regional Managing Director at Lovell, James Duffett, said: “We are delighted to have been appointed to deliver these much-needed homes in Pontllanfraith, and it is a huge pleasure to continue our working partnership with Pobl after delivering an award-winning scheme together in Newport, Loftus Garden Village.
“As a five-star developer which has signed the Placemaking Wales Charter, we have been credited for delivering excellence in not only our quality of build but our service, with a goal to create homes and places which truly benefit local people.”
Ellis Cunliffe, Project Manager at Pobl Group said: “It’s fantastic to see this exciting development get underway. We’re proud to be collaborating with Caerphilly County Borough Council and Lovell on this project to deliver high quality, affordable homes, evidence of Pobl’s commitment to delivering affordable living solutions where they are needed across Wales.
“We look forward to completion of this development in Summer 2024.”
