We have been given the keys to our final homes at a new development in West Witney.
31 October 2023
We have been given the keys to our final homes at a new development in West Witney.
We have been working with developer Persimmon to provide 38 new affordable homes - a mix of 1-bedroom maisonettes and 2, 3 and 4-bed houses - at the new Windrush Place development.
Last week, we took handover of our final two new homes on the site - both 4-bed houses for affordable rent.
Colin Bloodworth, our Director of Development and Partnerships, said: “We’re committed to growing our affordable housing stock – both for rent and shared ownership. It’s imperative that we support those in housing need and Cottsway has an ambitious development programme in place to support local people.
“Demand for affordable housing is high and Witney is one of the key towns in our catchment area and so we’re delighted to have worked with Persimmon on this scheme. We have already welcomed customers to this new development and look forward to handing over the keys to the final homes.”
To reflect the history of the town, Witney Town Council have named many of the streets on the new development after people who have a connection to Witney, including:
The Cottsway homes are part of a much larger development at Windrush Place which will have around 1,000 homes in total along with a new primary school, community centre, sports pitches and a pavilion.
Julian Roper, Persimmon Managing Director, said: “We’re delighted to have been able to honour some of the past people who have lived in Witney through the development’s street names.
“Persimmon is determined to leave a positive legacy in the local area through the provision of new homes and jobs, and we are very pleased to have partnered with Cottsway on the delivery of these affordable properties in the area.”
