Llanmoor Homes start work on its latest residential scheme

Its latest project is a 40 home scheme in Aberbargoed.

Housebuilder Llanmoor Homes has begun work on a new residential scheme in Aberbargoed.

Construction of the 40 home development on the south of Bedwellty Road has commenced earlier than anticipated, following the success of its nearby St Sannans Field development.

The new development, which has not yet been named, will be built on grassland below Y Ffordd Wen. It will provide a mix of two-, three- and four-bedroom homes, .

Infrastructure works began on the site this month, including the installation of site offices and storage facilities. Family business Llanmoor Homes, based in Pontyclun, expects to begin construction of the first homes in late autumn, when prices and further details of the development will also be released.

Tim Grey, sales director at Llanmoor Homes, said: “The response to our nearby St Sannans Field development has been outstanding, with homes selling at a pace that exceeded our expectations. As a result, we have been able to bring forward plans for this neighbouring site much sooner than originally anticipated.

“The local housing market has remained incredibly resilient despite recent economic challenges, and we have seen unprecedented demand from a wide range of buyers. This includes first-time buyers looking to take their first step onto the property ladder, growing families seeking additional space and existing homeowners wanting to move to homes that better suit their changing needs.

“We know there is a strong appetite for high-quality new homes in Aberbargoed and the surrounding area, and this development will help provide more choice for local people. By offering a range of house types and sizes, we hope to create a development that appeals to buyers at different stages of life while supporting the continued growth of the community.

“It is always exciting to see work begin on a new development, and we look forward to sharing more details over the coming months as the site progresses.”

The development will also include dedicated parking areas, landscaped green spaces and play provision.

There will be no affordable housing provision on the development, as Llanmoor Homes has already met the affordable housing requirements set by Caerphilly Council on its nearby St Sannans Field development.

Llanmoor was founded by former chartered accountant Brian Grey in 1966, and soon completed its first development, a small group of bungalows, in the village of Brynna, near Pencoed. Brian’s sons Simon, Matthew and Tim continue to run the business

Over the last 60 years it has sold more than 5,000 homes.
