David Driscoll, the current Chair of the Society’s Board said: "Housing developments such as Sangster House are more than just about bricks and mortar, they are about providing sustainable communities and excellent quality homes, allowing people to enjoy peace, comfort and security.”
“We are delighted to have worked alongside Norwich City Council to deliver much needed, high-quality housing. We would like to thank the council for helping us deliver this scheme and we hope that the tenants enjoy their new homes.”
John Newstead, Chief Executive Officer at the Society added: “We are thrilled to be involved in this project which enhances the local area. The design approach considers the character of the existing surrounding properties whilst bringing a distinct addition to this area of Bluebell Road.”
“We hope that this new development will support the local community and make a real and lasting difference to the lives of the new tenants.”
