Top 10 UK housebuilder, Keepmoat, has invested more than £66.6 million into a regeneration scheme to revitalise East Leeds, delivering almost 800 new homes.

The Timeless development in Seacroft has seen the area undergo significant regeneration and investment as part of Leeds City Council’s wider regeneration project.

The scheme, being delivered by the housebuilder, forms part of a long-established partnership with Homes England to deliver new homes that will replace approximately 5 acres of brownfield land that once housed Seacroft Hospital.

The 758-home development has been built over four phases, with the first three phases delivered in partnership with Strata. Work on the final phase of the transformation has now begun and will create the final 72 new mixed tenure homes to the project.

Just four miles from Leeds City Centre, the development will provide an ideal location for those commuting into the city centre as well as many local amenities close by including shops, restaurants and bars.

The Timeless development is a flagship scheme for the wider regeneration project that is being led by Keepmoat and Homes England, aiming to provide a tremendous opportunity for the city’s growth.

The project has also created a raft of new local jobs, training and apprenticeship opportunities, further boosting the local economy. Chris Clingo, Regional Managing Director at Keepmoat, Yorkshire West, said “We’re thrilled to be continuing delivery under the Leeds City Council partnership to deliver quality, sustainable homes for the latest phase of the Timeless Development.

“The development forms part of a wider regeneration project in East Leeds which is aiming to provide significant opportunity for the city’s growth. It has been a privilege to watch the new communities begin to flourish and it’s extremely rewarding to hear positive feedback from residents and breathe new life into the Seacroft area.”
