Abri is proposing to build 80 homes in Broadmayne, Dorset, on a site of nearly five hectares. The homes will aim to respond to local demand, with predominately two- and three-bedroom energy efficient family homes, delivered as shared ownership and affordable rent properties. Abri will use its own funding alongside grant funding from Homes England to make all the homes affordable.
The homes will be prioritised for people who live or work locally and there will be a mix of two-, three- and four-bedroom houses and two-bedroom bungalows to help meet a variety of housing needs. The proposals include carefully designed public open space within the development, as well as allotments and nearly nine hectares of new publicly accessible country park-style green space.
The homes will also be built to Future Homes Standard, to lower their carbon footprint by using low carbon heating and enhanced energy efficiency which will mean the homes are warmer and more cost effective to live in.
