MCI Developments, a subsidiary of Keepmoat, will deliver 158 affordable homes at Trub Farm, Castleton, in partnership with L&G Affordable Homes.
The new flagship housing scheme in Rochdale was recently granted full planning permission and will create a range of one- and two-bedroom apartments, alongside two-, three- and four-bedroom houses. These will be complemented by a cycle and pedestrian path linking the neighbourhood to the adjacent Rochdale Canal towpath. L&G will let the homes as social rent and Shared Ownership.
Jamie Irving, land & partnerships director at MCI Developments, said: “We’re proud to be partnering with L&G on this flagship scheme, which will deliver much-needed affordable homes and support the creation of a thriving new community in Rochdale.
“At MCI Developments, we pride ourselves on a robust partnership model and this collaboration and investment with L&G reflects our shared commitment to delivering high-quality homes in places where they are needed most. We look forward to progressing our plans for the scheme.”
Marcus Fisher, head of new business at L&G Affordable Homes, added: “Trub Farm is an important scheme for Rochdale and partnerships like this, where L&G can provide long-term stability with institutionally backed investment, are key to getting projects like this done.
“We’re doing a lot of work in the Manchester region, unlocking grant funding to deliver schemes like this and partnering with local businesses.”
