Rob Curry, sales and marketing director at Taylor Wimpey Bristol, said: “We’re very happy to be working with Alliance Homes to bring a number of social rent and shared ownership properties to Nailsea and Weston-super-Mare.
“We’re looking forward to the developments, called Netherton Grange and Mead Fields respectively, becoming established communities.”
These deals come soon after the announcement that Alliance Homes will be bringing 127 affordable homes to Portishead following the social housing organisation’s purchase of the landmark development from luxury retirement provider, Lifestory.
The new homes form part of Alliance Homes' commitment to build 2,000 new affordable homes over the next 10 years.
