Partnership with Together Housing
Horden Meadow represents a successful partnership between Kingswood Homes and Together Housing, combining their expertise in building high quality homes with Together Housing’s commitment to providing affordable housing solutions. Dai Howells, Assistant Director of Development at Together Housing, stated: “We’re pleased to be working with Kingswood Homes on our aligned vision to create a community that offers high-quality, affordable homes in the Blackburn area. Our commitment to responding to diverse housing needs in the town has been a driving force of our investment in the borough.”
Quality and Accessibility
All homes at Horden Meadow are built to Kingswood’s 5-star build quality standards and are ‘tenure blind,’ meaning there is no visual difference between shared ownership, affordable rent, and open market properties. This approach creates an integrated community where all residents enjoy the same high-quality living environment.
James Brown, Architectural Director at Kingswood Homes, commented: “These homes represent our commitment to building a more sustainable future while making quality, affordable housing accessible to all. We’re proving that affordable housing can be delivered with the same excellence as our open market homes, while also leading the way in carbon reduction.”
