Chris Jones, Executive Director of Development at emh said: “We’re proud to be working alongside Vistry Group to provide this new affordable home development in Northampton. The scheme has been thoughtfully designed to meet the needs of local people, with community, green spaces and the environment in mind. We look forward to seeing the development progress in the coming months.”

One of the standout features of this development will be the commitment to preserving and enhancing the environmental assets of the site. Vistry will implement a green infrastructure plan, which will include planted buffers and the retention and enrichment of greenery.

Community areas will be established and made accessible to the public and will be designed to enhance biodiversity, in order to promote a sense of community and eco-conscious living. Design features such as traffic calming measures, shared open spaces, and cycling connections will make public transport a convenient choice for residents.
