The partnership, which has been welcomed by Housing Minister Christopher Pincher, will initially deliver 482 units across five large-scale sites (which are currently owned by McCarthy & Stone and have planning consent).<\/p>\n
As part of the agreement, Anchor Hanover will pay a total of \u00a367m for the development of 316 Extra Care apartments, aimed at those in greatest need of supported housing and care. McCarthy & Stone will act as turn-key developer to Anchor Hanover to deliver these apartments\u00a0\u2013 of which 124 will be affordable rent and 192 will be shared ownership.<\/p>\n
A further 166 Retirement Living units will be sold and managed by McCarthy & Stone on land adjacent to Anchor Hanover\u2019s sites.<\/p>\n
The first two of these developments are set to get underway in Hook, Hampshire and Hinckley, Leicestershire later this year with the next two developments located in Bingley, West Yorkshire, and Standish, Greater Manchester due to commence in early 2021.<\/p>\n
The final development will follow in Macclesfield, Cheshire later in 2021.<\/p>\n
