Some of the first people who have moved into a vast new housing development in a Nottinghamshire village say it has "everything you need". Residents have moved in as part of the first phase of the £4.1m Shelford Road development in Radcliffe-on-Trent, which offers a range of properties including two or three bedroom houses as well as a mix of rent and shared ownership.
The estate is being built in partnership with housebuilders William Davis with 31 properties in the first phase to be followed by a further 35 in the second. The project is Riverside’s first in the borough of Rushcliffe - but two other developments are now also underway in Keyworth and Ruddington.
The homes in Radcliffe form part of a wider plan for up to 400 new homes, a primary school and a health centre. People who live at the new estate have been speaking about what it's like. Lucy Carr, who moved into her home in December 2020, said: "We love it here. It's a nice community."
