New Affordable Bungalows Completed on Lambert Road

We are delighted to announce the successful completion of our latest development on Lambert Road in Ribbleton, Preston. What was once a brownfield site, has now been transformed into eight high-quality bungalows for affordable rent. This includes four one-bedroom and four two-bedroom homes, all of which have been allocated to tenants.

These energy-efficient, gas-free homes will help reduce fuel bills for tenants and form a key part of our Corporate Plan to make our homes carbon neutral by 2050. All homes feature air-source heat pumps instead of boilers, plus under-floor heating and wet-rooms.

The development was delivered by On Track Construction, a Preston-based company that has worked on several of our previous developments, including Duddle Lane, Curwen Street, Isherwood Street, Geoffrey Street, Ramsey Avenue, and Collinson Street. They have also refurbished nine empty homes for us, helping to bring much-needed homes back into use.

Our Chief Executive, Rob Wakefield, attended the handover and shared his thoughts on the development:

"Providing high-quality, affordable homes is at the heart of what we do. Transforming this site into much-needed bungalows is a great example of how we’re making the best use of available land to provide homes that meet the needs of our communities. It’s fantastic to see tenants moving in and we look forward to delivering even more affordable homes.”

This latest development is another example of how we are investing in our communities and delivering high-quality homes that make a real difference.

We are building new affordable homes and developing our offering with different housing options, and have a number of new developments soon to be available for rent, you can find out more by clicking here.
