Sheepwash has six affordable homes saved from market sale

Hastoe Housing Association has stepped in to save six new rural affordable homes from market sale. The six homes, part of a larger development intended for market sale and built by Stevens Homes Ltd were intended to be taken on by another housing association, but due to market conditions this was unable to happen.

The six homes include four homes for social rent and two for shared ownership. All have solar panels to reduce energy costs and have shared use of a children’s playpark on the site.

Rural affordable housing enables local people to stay in the communities they grew up in, close to their family and friends.
