£13m affordable housing development set for Nelson

MCI Developments has teamed up with Together Housing to build 114 affordable homes in Nelson.

The £13m project has already seen land off Priory Chase purchased from private owners, now the site will be transformed over the next three years to include  a mix of one and two bed apartments, two bed bungalows and two-, three-, and four- bedroomed houses.

This is the first joint project between MCI Developments, which is part of Keepmoat Homes, and Together Housing.

Alex Wood, regional managing director at MCI Developments, said: "We’re delighted to be working in partnership with Together Housing for the first time to deliver this residential scheme at Priory Chase. We were keen to work with a partner who had the same vision to transform the site into a thriving inclusive community, providing local people and local families with the opportunity to live in a new energy efficient new home at an affordable rent level.

"With 100 per cent of the development being available for affordable rent, we’re excited to commence construction on site, and we look forward to delivering these much-needed new homes."
