Curo has announced plans to build up to 213 homes, including 30% affordable housing, on land situated on Bath Road in Keynsham.
Curo’s plans for the site prioritise open spaces and local infrastructure. Green open spaces, community orchards, and grow patches are all part of the newly unveiled plans for the scheme. The ecological and landscape proposals for the site will enhance the local ecosystem by a minimum of 10% from its current state.
A sports pitch is also planned as part of the works and will be located next to the Two Rivers Primary School, offering ample opportunities for leisure and outdoor activities. Curo has partnered with local architects and contractors to bring this development to life, including Thrive Architects, PFA Engineers, David Jarvis Associates Landscape Architects, and Clarkson Woods Ecologists.
Victor da Cunha, CEO at Curo, says, “Our plans for Bath Road look to address the severe lack of homes for local people in Keynsham, offering solutions to the diverse housing needs of the area. This project is set to be a catalyst for the creation of an accessible and vibrant neighbourhood, with 67 affordable homes included in the plans.”
With outline planning permission for up to 213 homes already secured, Curo will now refine its development proposals to showcase the detailed design of the scheme in the next stage of the project’s evolution.
