Completion: Summer 2024

Local Authority: Bristol City Council

Developer: Abri

Contractor: Speller Metcalfe

Tenure: Social rent, Shared Ownership and market sale

Homes: 74

Background

After working in partnership with Bristol City Council, we built a mixture of two, three and four bedroom houses and one and two bedroom apartments. Of these, 17 homes are available for social rent and 20 for Shared Ownership – and another 37 are for open-market sale, with profits reinvested back to deliver more affordable homes in the future.

This site includes air source heat pumps to all properties, and electric car charging points are installed at selected properties.

The development provides 50% affordable homes, which is a significant increase on the usual 30% requested by Bristol City Council; to meet the needs of a range of people and provide vital homes to help solve the city’s housing challenge.

Ahead of the project, then Executive Director of Development and Strategic Asset Management for Abri, Stephen Lodge, said:

“We’re delighted to be working with Bristol City Council to provide these new homes. As Lockleaze is a brownfield site, it’s great to be revitalising this unused land, helping to build communities, and address the shortage of homes across Bristol without putting strain on an ever-expanding city.”
