Fenland District Council is celebrating 24 new affordable homes that have been built in March.

The houses are on the new Kingswood Park development, which is on Kingswood Road in the town. They are a mix of two and three-bedroom homes available for affordable rent.

The homes have been provided by Sanctuary Housing, a housing association company that worked with Fenland District Council to deliver the homes.

The provider has put in design elements, like dormer roofs, to make sure that the homes are in keeping with the whole development and the open spaces around it.

The design has been shortlisted in the 'Best Affordable Housing Development - less than £10m' category, at the Inside Housing Development Awards.

Cllr Jan French, deputy leader of Fenland District Council and town, district and county councillor for March, said: "I'm so pleased to see these new affordable homes built here in March and hear that local people and families from the area are now making Kingswood Park their home.

"I'd like to thank Sanctuary for their partnership and commitment to supporting Fenland and providing new, high-quality homes that people can afford."
