New £27 million housing development for Wakefield

Wakefield-based housebuilder Ben Bailey Homes has announced a new £27 million housing development in Crigglestone.

Construction is expected to commence this month and will create a number of sales and construction jobs over the next two years.

A planning application for the 11 acre site to provide 130 homes has been approved and remediation works are underway.

Ben Bailey Homes managing director, Mark Mitchell, said: “The purchase of new land in Wakefield is a significant investment for the business and part of our ongoing strategy for a major roll out of new developments across Yorkshire in 2014 and 2015.”

“Thanks to what our customers have told us, we have designed, developed and built an outstanding collection of new homes with functional and flexible designs.

“We are very proud of our new product, which stands head and shoulders above the competition and look forward to bringing it to Wakefield home buyers for the first time.”

This will be Ben Bailey Homes’ second development in the city following the success of its Lofthouse Park development on Park Drive which sold out earlier this year.
