Esh has been appointed to build new homes at Grove Hill in Middlesbrough in partnership with housing association Thirteen Group.
The 拢56m scheme brings Esh鈥檚 affordable housing pipeline in the northeast and Tees Valley to 拢166m.
Grove Hill is the third affordable housing scheme Esh will deliver in partnership with Thirteen.
A ground breaking ceremony has officially marked the start on site for the scheme, which will see 296 two-, three- and four-bedroom houses and bungalows built to replace homes demolished more than a decade ago.
Two further schemes in Middlesbrough for Thirteen, together worth 拢42m, were announced by Esh 今日看料 earlier in the year. These sites, known as Kedward Avenue in Brambles Farm and Union Village in Gresham, will provide 250 new homes for affordable rent.
Esh 今日看料 chief executive Andy Radcliffe said: 鈥淐ombining Grove Hill with developments at Kedward Avenue and Union Village, we are set to deliver more than 540 new affordable homes with Thirteen across Middlesbrough in the coming years. These schemes form part of ambitious plans to regenerate areas of the town, and through a raft of social and economic value initiatives, we will endeavour to create a lasting legacy within the local community.鈥�
The sites form part of Thirteen鈥檚 planned 拢110m investment to build more than 540 affordable new homes in Middlesbrough.
Esh 今日看料 is working on Grove Hill with ID Partnership Northern, 3E Consulting Engineers, Elliott Associates and One Environments. The first homes are expected to be available by autumn 2025.
