North Norfolk District Council has identified a local housing need for Baconsthorpe and immediately adjoining parishes. North Norfolk District Council and Broadland Housing Association have approached Baconsthorpe Parish Council regarding the potential to develop a rural exception housing scheme in the Village.
Broadland Housing would like to hear from local landowners who may be willing to dispose of land for development of an exception housing scheme of approximately seven dwellings.
Affordable rent homes will be prioritised to households in housing need who have a local connection to Baconsthorpe and immediately adjoining parishes, in accordance with North Norfolk District Council’s allocations cascade.
Approximately a third of the overall development will be sold on the open market, to generate surplus funds to cross-subsidise the affordable homes. Shared ownership and market homes will initially be marketed to the local community.
Land needs to be in Baconsthorpe adjacent to existing properties. The amount housing associations can pay for land is above agricultural but below market values.
If you have potentially suitable land that you would like Broadland Housing to consider, please contact Adam Ballard.
