“Our Aspiration Homes partnership is making new homes a reality for residents on the housing register, so more local families have a town centre home to look forward to.

The council said the design utilises Boutique Modern’s standard fabric first approach, maximising energy performance within each apartment through airtight construction and super insulation.
The housing scheme also benefits from solar energy generation, according to the council.
