Derbyshire village to benefit from £1.5m thanks to Rippon Homes
A Derbyshire village is set to benefit from over £1.5 million worth of contributions to local services thanks to Rippon Homes.
The house builder will make a £1,535,360 contribution to Wingerworth, near Chesterfield, over the life of the development, alongside the new three and four-bedroom homes it is bringing to Kings Meadow, located off Deerlands Road.
The money will be used to build and maintain new play and recreation facilities, provide 20 affordable new homes, create new public artwork at Kings Meadow, for archaeological surveys and to provide a donation towards Wingerworth Library.
Ian Dyke, Managing Director at Rippon Homes, comments: “We are proud to be making such a significant contribution to Wingerworth and its local services, and are confident that it will bring many benefits to the area and those who live here.
“The affordable homes we are bringing to the village will include three and four-bedroom homes, which will offer an easier route into home ownership for those currently struggling to get on the property ladder.
“We will also be working alongside the local primary school to create a public artwork for the new development, while the contribution we are making to the library will help to improve current facilities.”
Kings Meadow is a collection of new houses designed to meet the needs of local home buyers, with a focus on offering high quality, well-designed houses with a high specification.
The onsite sales centre has proved a big draw for home buyers, who have been keen to find out more about the houses Rippon is bringing to the area.
Ian adds: “Home buyers have shown a real interest in these new houses thanks to the impressive location and our high specification homes.
“Kings Meadow offers the best of both worlds for those wanting a new home in a quiet rural setting that is just a short drive from Chesterfield.”
For more information on the new homes, visit Kings Meadow between 10.30am and 5.30pm, Thursday to Monday. Alternatively, go to ripponhomes.co.uk for more details.
