Barratt set to provide new homes, jobs and community benefits in Melksham

Up to 300 jobs are set to be supported in Melksham with the start of a new development from Barratt Homes.

The five star housebuilder is set to start work later this summer on Sandridge Place in Melksham with the development set to provide a significant economic boost to the local area in terms of jobs and improvements to local facilities.

Not only will the development provide 100 valuable new homes but in addition, a boost to the economy will be employment opportunities for tradespeople and subcontractors, mostly filled by local people.

Sales director Andrea Pilgrim said: “We know that those who move to our developments are likely to spend the money they earn in local shops and on nearby services, so it’s not only the jobs market here that will see the positive effects of these new homes.”

Sandridge Place will feature 100, two, three and four bedroom homes and the location will provide easy access for buyers into Chippenham, Devizes and Bath.

“This is great for people wishing to settle in this sought-after area,” said Andrea. “We think very carefully before deciding where to build new properties - and we know demand here is very high. We’re thrilled be back in the area and playing our part in bringing new homes to Melksham.

“The layout of this development has been created with a whole host of lifestyles in mind - from sole occupants and couples to growing families. This is very important to us. We know there is a need for new and accessible housing in this region, and our home designers have done us proud here.”
