The Digbeth scheme forms part of Latimer’s wider commitment to delivering sustainable homes in well-connected urban locations, including the delivery of affordable housing to meet local need.
The development will include 141 homes for social rent and 147 for shared ownership, alongside 193 homes for private sale.
‘Major step forward’ for the project
Mark Jones, managing director of multi-room at Winvic Construction, said: “We’re proud to be partnering with Latimer to deliver this exciting new development in the heart of Digbeth, bringing our extensive experience in delivering complex, high-quality residential schemes in Birmingham.
“Working collaboratively with Latimer and the wider project team, we will focus on delivering sustainable, high-quality homes while also creating meaningful social value designed to leave a lasting positive legacy in the local community, including employment opportunities, skills development, and support for local businesses.”
Richard Cook, chief development officer at Clarion Housing Group, added: “Signing the contract with Winvic is a major step forward for this scheme and allows us to move confidently towards delivery. Digbeth is an area with a strong identity and huge potential, and this development will bring forward hundreds of much-needed new homes, with affordability at its core.
“With 60% of homes delivered as affordable, including a substantial proportion for social rent, this scheme reflects Latimer’s long-term commitment to inclusive growth and creating places that work for a broad range of people.”
