Yorkshire housebuilder Avant Homes is set to build 192 new homes on a 17 acre plot as part of the first phase of the Skelton Gate regeneration scheme.
Set on the former open cast colliery in the Leeds Aire Valley, the Skelton Gate development has been led by Templegate Developments Ltd, a joint venture between Evans Property Group and Keyland Developments.
Having acquired the land, the company plans to create a community of 1,800 new homes, a primary and secondary school, public open space, a local centre and a convenience store.
