en.Wedoany.com Reported - UK housebuilder Vistry has reached an agreement with Homes England to launch the next phase, Phase 3B, of residential development at Northstowe, delivering 1,000 homes. The development will include a new local centre, a primary school, and supporting infrastructure, covering roads, utilities, and green spaces. The planning application is to be submitted by the end of 2026, with construction expected to start in 2027 and the first residents moving in from 2028.

Alison Crofton, Chief Regional Delivery Officer at Homes England, said the housing deal marks a major new phase in the delivery of Northstowe, supporting 1,000 homes and advancing essential infrastructure in parallel with the development, which will help accelerate construction and create more opportunities for SME builders. Stephen Teagle, Chief Executive of Partnerships & Regeneration at Vistry, stated the company is committed to creating sustainable, well-connected developments and looks forward to working closely with partners.

The first masterplan permission for Northstowe was granted in 2014. The initial phase of development was led by Urban and Civic, which delivered the town's first primary school. Northstowe welcomed its first residents in early 2017. The first phase of development is nearing completion and includes a second primary school, a secondary school, a sixth form college, and a special school. Homes England is responsible for the already commenced second and third phases of development. The second phase comprises 3,500 homes and has permission to provide shops, cafes, and various facilities. Once fully built out, Northstowe will have approximately 10,000 homes across a 540-hectare site.
