New homes coming to Broom
Eighteen new homes. Including nine affordable homes - a mix of houses, maisonettes and bungalows.
The eighteen homes, a second phase of affordable homes. Nine new affordable homes, six social rent and three shared ownership.
Spacious and low-carbon affordable homes
The homes will be built to national space standards and will have energy-efficient air source heat pumps and solar panels with battery storage.
The air source heat pumps are eco-friendly, reducing carbon dioxide emissions, and also provide lower cost heating, compared to traditional electric heating systems found in many off-gas rural homes. This will help to keep energy bills low for residents, which in times of significant energy cost increases, is more important than ever.
There are nine affordable homes at Broom:
Six for social rent:
- two 1-bed maisonettes
- two 2-bed bungalows
- one 2-bed house
- one 3-bed house
Three for shared ownership:
- one 2-bed house
