The new housing development is located at Harehill Mews in Grangewood and includes 12 modern and affordable two-bedroom houses bought by the Chesterfield Borough Council to support struggling families.

We are pleased that the acquisition of these properties is now complete, as they will provide affordable, modern and accessible homes for our families.
“It’s important that any homes we build or purchase take into account environmental issues and are energy efficient for our tenants. Living in a warm and energy efficient home is not only better for our planet, but it will also reduce costs to run the property, offering affordable warmth to our tenants.”
The properties were officially handed over to the council on 29 September 2022 and all 12 have been allocated with tenants who are currently moving into their new homes.
