This week saw the handover of the final homes for social rent at Ravenswood, Ipswich, where we have constructed 96 properties for Handford Homes Ipswich, on behalf of Ipswich Borough Council
Construction of the development, which commenced in January 2023, primarily consists of social housing and market rent homes, all designed for sustainable living and to support IBC’s environmental commitments.
The project was developed within the Considerate Constructors Scheme, and we scored an impressive ‘Excellent’ in all three areas: Respect for the community, Care for the environment and Value of our workforce.
The site and our team have won a number of awards – in 2023 the site won the LABC Bricks award for ‘Best Small Social Housing Development’, and was also awarded The Bricks Site Recognition Award for August from LABC Warranty – The Bricks Warranty for consistent quality of workmanship and site management.
The 21 remaining homes will be handed over next month.
