Denne helps bring new affordable homes to Maidstone

Denne, part of the Leadbitter Group, has won two contracts to design and build affordable homes in Maidstone, Kent, on behalf of Golding Homes Housing Association.

The first scheme, on Church Street in central Maidstone, will start this summer and is due to finish in late Autumn 2013. It will involve the construction of a single timber frame block of 26 apartments, built to meet Code for Sustainable Homes level 3.

The second project, Finch Court on Dickens Road, which is north of the town centre, is due to begin later this year with the demolition of the existing flats on the site. These will be replaced with 20 three-bedroom houses built to meet Code for Sustainable Homes level 4, which will be available for social rent.

Graham Brown, Managing Director of Denne, said: “The start of the Church Street scheme marks the beginning of what we hope will be a long and mutually beneficial relationship with Golding Homes. We are proud to be delivering these much needed affordable and sustainable homes to the people of Maidstone.”
