HOUSING work is to begin on a plan to deliver affordable homes to rent in Llandudno that will cater for both families and over 55s.

The new development on Builder Street will feature 77 one, two, three and four-bedroom homes in an area where there is an independently identified shortfall.

Pre-commencement works are set to begin soon, starting with site clearance and creation of new access routes, with building works to begin in early summer.

This scheme is part of ClwydAlyn's development programme to deliver a further 1500 new homes in North Wales by 2025 at an investment of £250million, bringing the total number of homes in management to more than 7,500.

Craig Sparrow, Executive Director of Development at ClwydAlyn, said: "The development of this site into 77 high quality new homes will address a key need for affordable housing for a mixture of people in the local area.

“The design and the high standard of the build will ensure that the homes are not only stylish and comfortable but also fit for the future.

"We're delighted to be working in partnership with Lane End to bring the scheme to fruition and create a vibrant new community, as well as boosting local employment."

Lane End will be delivering construction works at the site, utilising their extensive expertise in the construction and housing sector.
