Modular housebuilder ilke Homes is to deliver up to 449 energy-efficient homes in partnership with housing association The Riverside Group at a 21-acre site in Thanet, Kent.
Subject to reserved matters planning approval from Thanet District Council, ilke will build a mix of houses and apartments ranging from one to four bedrooms across a mix of tenures – including social rent, shared ownership and build-to-rent.
Tom Heathcote, executive director of development at ilke Homes, said: “ilke Homes continues to partner with some of the country’s most well-known housing associations, largely in part to our ability to deliver high quality, energy-efficient homes quickly.
“The Riverside Group, as part of its adopted ESG strategies, has acknowledged the increasing importance of sustainability and our partnership will help future-proof their investment from rapidly changing building regulations and government guidelines.
“We look forward to working with both local planning officials and other stakeholders to progress the proposals through planning to deliver a truly sustainable and well-designed community that will be providing much-needed, high-quality housing for the area.”
The housebuilder will submit a reserved matters planning application to Thanet District Council at the end April and subject to planning it is anticipated work will start on site early next year.
