Hartley Place
Ellesmere Port,
Magenta Living
Description of Scheme
The new build will provide 60 one and two bed apartments and 15 two-bedroom bungalows, enabling residents to live independently with assistance on site should it be needed. The apartments will be in a mainly four-storey block, which planners accept will be prominent and close to Sutton Way. Magenta claims the homes will be among the most energy efficient properties in the area. They will be built to 'Lifetime Homes' standard meaning they will be easily adaptable to suit changing needs.
In addition to providing affordable homes, the scheme has also led to employment and training opportunities. Five apprenticeships have been created and partnership working with West Cheshire College has enabled specialist Yorkshire based affordable home contractors Southdale to identify appropriate training for students.
Work is expected to finish in Winter 2016/17.
