A project to build hundreds of homes on the edge of Clifton has taken a step forward after developers snapped up land for the £77.5m development. Avant Homes, the house building company which has bought 24-acres of land off Hawksley Gardens, said the vast project was expected to create hundreds of new jobs.
Subject to securing full planning permission, developers said they wanted to build 265 homes. The new estate, to the east of the Crusader Island, off the A453 Remembrance Way, is expected to be made up of one, two, three, four and five-bedroom houses.
Groundworks could start this summer - with the project likely to take six years to finish. The development is set to create more than 820 jobs.
