More than 150 homes to be built in South Heywood as part of masterplan

Bellway has released proposals for the 11.6 acre site on Manchester Road, which will see three, four and five bedroom homes being constructed there.

The scheme, part of Belway's Artisan Collection, will be part of the South Heywood Masterplan. 

Work has now started on site, which is said to be progressing well, and the housebuilder plans to open two show homes in spring.

Known as Hopwood Meadows, the development offers a mix of semi-detached and detached homes, appealing to all buyers and budgets. 

The first homes have been released for sale, including a range of three and four bedroom properties, with prices starting from £314,995.

Bellway sales director Grace Yarlett said: “It is great to be part of the South Heywood Masterplan and we are proud to contribute and provide high quality new build homes in this new community in Rochdale. 

“The plans for Hopwood Meadow are superb and we are confident the design and specification of our Artisan homes will attract buyers. 

"With the first few sales already secured, we continue to look forward to welcoming potential purchasers to site to learn more about Bellway.”
