Karbon Homes to start £12m affordable homes scheme in Northumberland village

Work will soon get under way on a £12m development set to bring affordable housing to a Northumberland village.

Karbon Homes has secured planning permission for a development of 63 affordable homes in Bellingham, Northumberland, on the former auction mart site, a plot long-earmarked for housing. The scheme will include 14 bungalows, 14 apartments, 15 houses and 20 care ready supported housing apartments.

The firm said the development will provide much-needed affordable housing in the area which will be available for affordable rent, rent to buy, and shared ownership for older people. Vince Walsh, development manager at Karbon Homes, said: “We’re really pleased to have secured planning for this new development and look forward to progressing forward in the coming months. Providing more affordable homes in rural communities like Bellingham is something we’re really passionate about.
