We are delighted to announce that the Kingsdown development at Swindon secured a resolution to permit at planning committee last night.
The project will deliver:
Working closely with the Local Authority and consultees, the application has gone through various iterations to ensure the proposals are well designed, providing a distinctive, attractive and accessible place. All new homes at Kingsdown will be zero-carbon ready, powered by air source heat pumps, have solar panels and come with electric vehicle charging points.
