Taylor Wimpey East Anglia has acquired a 12-acre site in Soham, Cambridgeshire, on which it intends to deliver 80 new homes.
Subject to planning approval, the development, which is located just off Brook Street, will comprise a mix of one- to five-bedroom homes, with 20% of the homes allocated as affordable housing.
The housebuilder has submitted a planning application for the new development and if it is successful, groundworks are expected to begin in June 2027 with the first homes estimated to go on sale at the end of 2027.
Tom Wheeler, land director at Taylor Wimpey East Anglia, said: “We are pleased to announce our acquisition of the land just off Brook Street in Soham for a new 80-home development. With our popular Lantern Croft development in Ely coming to an end, this site is a significant acquisition for Taylor Wimpey to continue their presence in Cambridgeshire. We now await the final planning decision, and if granted, we look forward to bringing this development forward to meet the demand for new build homes in the area.”
