Avant Homes aims to submit development plans for local council approval in September this year and if successful, intends to begin construction by May 2025.  

The first occupants at the site are expected to start moving into their new homes by January 2026. 

Avant Homes managing director Richard Hosie said: “Acquiring this site in Thurnscoe represents an exciting opportunity for us to deliver our multitenure strategy. As a house builder, we want to build quality new homes for everyone. This site is in an ideal location for us to deliver our range of practically designed, energy-efficient homes in a place where people want to live. 

“We look forward to working with Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council and submitting our plans to build a new and thriving community in Thurnscoe.” 

The latest announcement comes after Avant Homes West Yorkshire entered into a £4.3m agreement with Manningham Housing Association to develop Odette’s Point in Keighley.  

As part of this initiative, Avant Homes will construct 20 additional homes at the Keighley site.
