Keld in Barrowford built by sustainable homebuilder, Northstone, has been crowned winners of the Residential Development of the year category at the inaugural Lancashire Property Awards.

The new awards have been established to shine a light on Lancashire’s best developers, homebuilders and their public sector partners, with the residential development of the year category in particular looking to recognise attractive, innovative or novel design features, exemplary build quality and strong environmental credentials – all of which being something Northstone has become synonymous for since launching in 2018.

Anita Jolley, Sales and Marketing Director at Northstone, said: “To have our Keld development in Barrowford recognised by the Lancashire Property Awards is a huge coup; it shows the value that both our sustainability initiatives and design principles creates, not just to the local community but to housebuilding as a whole.

“We’ve a clear focus and vision on designing and developing homes that stand true to our business ethos. Keld is a shining example of this, and one that we’re fiercely proud of.  At Keld, we’ve again considered how we encourage new communities, we’ve introduced what modern luxury living looks like and how every aspect of what we do differentiates and evolves the thinking and perception of new homes that stand out from the crowd for all the right reasons.”

All of Northstone’s homes feature a whole host of leading features as standard including Wondrwall – an AI energy efficient lighting, heating and security system and Showersave, a waste water heat recovery system which reduces energy costs and CO2 emissions.  The next phase of new homes at Keld are also equipped with an advanced specification as standard which includes even more insulation, solar panels, triple glazed windows and car chargers.

The success of Northstone's Keld development was described by judges as "taking mass housebuilding into a new space". Design-led and innovative, these homes have the occupier in mind from the start.”

Situated on Trough Laithe Road, Keld comprises two-, three- and four-bedroom homes priced from £320,000 for a 3-bed detached home. Complete with pedestrian-led streets for safer communities, flexible ground floor layouts and large gardens, each of the 239 properties have been intuitively planned.

Subject to build stage, purchasers can choose the exact specification of the ground floor layout to suit their individual needs and what’s more shared ownership is now available at this sought after development.  Not restricted to just first-time buyers, shared ownership now makes home ownership more affordable and accessible for all with prices starting at £160,000 on a 50% shared ownership basis for a three-bedroom detached home with 4 bedroom starting at £178,000 for a 50% share.

The Lancashire Property Awards was a black-tie event, held at Winter Gardens in Blackpool which celebrated the people and businesses that have designed, developed, funded and continue to manage the built environment across the Red Rose County.
