Leading affordable housing provider VIVID, in partnership with Cala Homes, has completed handover of 102 homes at the Kings Barton development in Winchester.
Over 90 customers have already moved into homes that are a mix of affordable rent and shared ownership. The newest homes, consisting of 1- and 2-bedroom apartments, are shared ownership. This comes amid rising demand for affordable homes in Winchester, with the latest housing assessment showing a need for over 140 shared ownership properties each year.
Tristan Samuels, Group Development & New Business Director at VIVID, said:
“We’re pleased to have completed on the development and to offer much-needed affordable homes in the Winchester area. This scheme has been key to our vision of building more homes and tackling the shortage of affordable housing. We’re delighted to welcome new customers into their brand-new homes.”
Fiona Creed, Sales & Marketing Director at Cala Homes, said:
“We’re thrilled to see the completion of these high-quality affordable homes at our Kings Barton development. Our partnership with VIVID has been instrumental in delivering much-needed housing in Winchester, providing residents with a fantastic opportunity to step onto the property ladder in a sought-after location.
“With a mix of shared ownership and affordable rent options, we’re proud to support a diverse and vibrant community. We look forward to seeing new residents settle in and make these homes their own.”
These shared ownership homes, which are less than a 30-minute walk from Winchester city centre, are a great option for those keen to get on the property ladder but unable to save a large deposit. Anyone interested can find out more on VIVID’s sales website: https://yourvividhome.co.uk/
