Council purchases land for development of new homes in Cubbington

Warwick District Council has successfully completed the purchase of 1.78 acres of land at the former Waverley Riding School in Cubbington for the provision of 17 homes, including 7 affordable properties.

The move to acquire the site forms part of a wider strategy by Warwick District Council to significantly boost the direct provision of affordable homes in conjunction with a range of construction partners across the district, and is a critical component to enable local people to continue living within the district, whilst also making use of brownfield land.

Warwick District Council’s Portfolio Holder for Housing Councillor Jan Matecki commented;

“We’re very pleased to have been able to secure this land for much needed housing within our district during challenging times.  This is a great location, and with a high proportion of affordable homes this could give an opportunity for young people and those with families to relocate to or stay in the area.”
