Construction work begins on £3m new homes development near Leeds
Work has now commenced on a £m housing development on a brownfield site in Micklefield, east of Leeds and close to Sherburn in Elmet and Garforth.
The ‘Manor Chase’ scheme, located on Great North Road in Micklefield, consists of 12 new homes and is being delivered by housebuilder Mandale Homes.
The development, which will comprise three and four-bedroom houses, is due for completion in April next year.
Richard Harriman, operations director at Mandale Homes, said: “Not only is it a great family-orientated community, with shops, a primary school and a pub, Micklefield has probably the best transport links of almost any village in the country.
“As well as its own railway station and just a 20 minute train journey into either Leeds or York, the A1 (M) and M1 motorways are both practically on the doorstep giving easy access to almost anywhere in Yorkshire.”
He added: “Each new development Mandale builds is designed individually to ensure there is an aesthetic fit with the local surroundings.
“Not surprisingly there has been considerable interest in this development from potential buyers, and five of the 12 properties have already been reserved off plan.”
Mandale Homes specialises in building small developments of homes in the north of England and currently has five residential sites underway in Yorkshire.
