The transaction marks Harworth’s third sale to Sky-House following the construction of 88 homes by the housebuilder at the 740-acre Waverley site over the past four years.

The planned development will include a mixture of two to four-bedroom houses and apartments with EPC ratings of B+ or above.

Ed Catchpole, regional director for Yorkshire and Central at Harworth, said: “Sky-House is a valued partner of Harworth, delivering a unique housing product at Waverley which emphasises good-quality design and sustainability.

“We are pleased that we have been able to extend our partnership further with this latest land sale.

“These new homes will enhance the vibrancy of the Waverley community and benefit from a wealth of green space and community amenities, including our planned Olive Lane development.”

David Cross, founder and director at Sky-House, added: “Building our third phase of new homes at Waverley is a significant milestone as we continue our productive relationship with Harworth to deliver what buyers really want from their new homes in the North of England.

“As the largest Sky-House development to date, it heralds our transition to a regional housebuilder of choice, meeting head-on the challenges of quality design, energy efficient homes, liveable streets and at a price point within the reach of people across South Yorkshire in these challenging times.”
