| The
first six homes at the innovative BedZED development in Sutton will
go on sale from Saturday 26th May 2001 when the sales office and
show home complex opens at 10am.
Of the 82 homes at BedZED, 34
are for outright sale, 23 are for shared ownership and 10 will be
let to key workers at cost rents. The remaining 15 are for social
housing and will be let at affordable rents.
Initial sales prices for the different
types of homes at BedZED are as follows:
· One bed flat with garden £102,500
· Two bed flat with garden £140,000
· Three bed maisonette £170,000
· Four bed house £238,500
In addition to the 82 new homes,
BedZED will include flexible workspace areas of approximately 80m2
for sale or to let, providing residents with the opportunity to
establish studios or other premises for creative and technology-based
businesses. The available workspace will be offered to residents
of BedZED first and then more widely if any remain vacant.
Richard McCarthy, Chief Executive
of the Peabody Trust, said:
“We have had an extremely high level of interest in BedZED
from prospective purchasers and the opening of the show home complex
marks the start of a particularly exciting stage for the development.
I am confident that the innovative environmental features at BedZED
and the provision of homes with a mix of tenures as well as the
facilities provided, will create a sustainable new community that
could provide a model for future urban developments.”
