VIVID and Imperial Homes have started construction on 38 affordable homes in Horndean, in Hampshire, offering a mix of social rent and shared ownership tenures.
The development, off Chalk Hill Road, will deliver one-, two-, three-, four- and five-bedroom homes. The new-build scheme will include sustainable features such as EV chargers and air source heat pumps, along with outdoor space intended for residents and the wider community.
Sunita Aujla, land and new business director at VIVID, said: “It’s always great to see construction begin and watch plans for new homes start to come to life.
“These 38 affordable homes will give more people the chance to put down roots in Horndean and be part of a local community. Good homes make a real difference to people’s lives, and this development is part of our wider work to invest in new and existing homes and create more affordable places to live across the south of England.”
Ben Olds, director at Imperial Homes, said: “We are delighted to be working with VIVID again, we have a longstanding and robust relationship, and this project further strengthens our partnership and portfolio on the South Coast.
“The site at Chalk Hill will deliver 38 affordable properties, providing much needed social housing within the borough. Like VIVID, we are eager to see the project come to life and offer the homes to the market and local people.”
The homes are due to be completed in autumn 2028.
