en.Wedoany.com Reported - UK developer Latimer Homes has announced that its shared ownership homes project at Lumina Village in Trafford, Greater Manchester, will officially launch on April 17th, offering one-bedroom, two-bedroom, three-bedroom, and four-bedroom shared ownership homes.

The Lumina Village shared ownership project is jointly developed by Clarion Housing Group, the parent company of Latimer Homes, alongside Glenbrook, Moorfield, and Bruntwood. The entire community is planned to include 639 new homes, of which Clarion Housing Group has committed to providing 199 affordable homes, covering both shared ownership and social rent models. Tobias Brown, Sales Director North at Latimer Homes, stated: "We are delighted to officially launch Latimer at Lumina Village, our latest contribution to affordable housing in Manchester. Lumina Village shatters the expectation that buying a home requires compromise – located at the heart of Trafford's regeneration, just a stone's throw from the city centre, the entire development is fully affordable."

This shared ownership project allows homebuyers to initially purchase a 40% share of the property, with one-bedroom apartments starting from £89,000. The remaining share is paid for through subsidized rent, and buyers can gradually increase their ownership stake. The architectural design is by Sheppard Robson, blending modern apartments with townhouses. The architectural style follows the area's red brick tradition, with three to seven-story buildings featuring diverse rooflines. Each shared ownership home features an open-plan kitchen and floor-to-ceiling windows, with some homes including private outdoor space. Kitchens are fitted with laminate worktops and integrated ovens, refrigerators, and freezers.

Lumina Village shared ownership homes are located opposite the Old Trafford cricket ground, adjacent to Longford Park and Chorlton Nature Reserve. Residents are within walking distance of the Old Trafford Metrolink tram stop, with Manchester city centre approximately 20 minutes away. The project site is part of the Civic Quarter masterplan, a joint venture development by Trafford Council and Bruntwood, which plans to deliver 4,000 new homes and 50,000 square meters of office and commercial space across 55 acres.

Tobias Brown added: "We are excited to offer new residents such a fantastic opportunity to become part of a diverse and vibrant community in this burgeoning area."
