Harworth doubled the number of residential plots sold to housebuilders and registered providers last year, a move its chief executive says will support the country’s ambitious housing delivery goals.
The company completed 1,896 residential plot sales during the final quarter of 2024, with a headline sales value of £71.7m, bringing total residential plot sales for the full year to 2,385, more than double 2023’s 1,170 plots and its best-ever year.
The plots were sold to national and regional housebuilders as well as registered providers of affordable housing, the largest deal being at the Coalville development in Leicestershire, in which 357 plots were sold to Taylor Wimpey.
The group’s residential land pipeline now totals 31,264 plots, with 15% of that pipeline already consented.
Chief executive Lynda Shillaw said: “Harworth had a busy fourth quarter in 2024… We are committed to delivering sustainable regeneration schemes, creating new communities in our regions, and supporting delivery of much-needed high-quality housing in the UK by accelerating delivery at our sites and broadening the range of our mixed tenure products.”
