Work on a new affordable housing development in Liverpool is now complete.
A total of 34 new homes have been built on a vacant site at Leighton Dene in Fazakerley.
The scheme comprises a mix of family houses and apartments following a £4.6 million investment delivered in partnership with main contractor Willmott Dixon.
Each home benefits from off-road parking and a range of energy efficient measures, including new boilers, new central heating systems and double glazed windows and doors, as well as modern kitchens and bathrooms.
The project brings the total number of affordable rent homes created by LMH under the Liverpool Housing Partnership (LHP) umbrella to 149, following on from recent completions at Hewitson Road (Tuebrook), Everton Road (Everton) and Tetlow Street (Kirkdale).
The LHP is a commitment by Liverpool City Council, Redrow Homes, LMH and Willmott Dixon to deliver 1,500 new homes and bring up to 1,000 empty homes back into use.
LMH Development Director Chris Bowen said: "Leighton Dene is a great example of our joint commitment to create high-quality affordable homes for people in housing need.
"This striking scheme benefits from high-end finishes and a range of energy-efficient products designed to keep tenants' fuel bills down.
"LMH is already developing another 225 units on live, or committed, Liverpool Housing Partnership sites, including 145 properties on Edge Lane where works could start as early as January 2018."
Stuart Belfield, Operations Director at Willmott Dixon, said: "Willmott Dixon is pleased to work in partnership with Liverpool Mutual Homes to develop these much-needed new homes in Fazakerley.
"This is the most recent project delivered through the Liverpool Housing Partnership. We're delighted to play our part in ensuring local people can enjoy Christmas in their brand-new homes."
