Homes England has secured a strategic land acquisition in South East Warrington, marking its largest housing-led development in Northern England.
This initiative will deliver up to 4,200 homes, including 30% affordable housing, alongside essential community facilities to address regional housing needs and stimulate economic growth.
Transforming Warrington’s Housing Landscape

Such enhancements are expected to improve quality of life for both new residents and existing communities in Warrington.
