We are pleased to announce that we have partnered with Ocean Housing, a leading not-for-profit housing provider in Cornwall, to deliver genuinely affordable homes at two of its latest developments in Goonhavern near Newquay and Trispen near Truro. The 50 affordable homes will support local people to remain in the communities where they work and live.

The scheme at The Grange in Goonhavern is the second and final phase of our development. We will deliver 23 affordable homes as part of the 40-home scheme. The homes will include a mix of one-bedroom apartments and two to four-bedroom houses, alongside two wheelchair-accessible bungalows, all available for affordable rent. The first affordable homes are expected to be handed over to Ocean Housing from spring 2027.

At The Paddocks in Trispen, we will deliver 27 affordable homes within the wider 80-home development. These will include a mix of one to four-bedroom houses, bungalows and apartments, available for social rent and shared ownership. The first affordable homes at Trispen are also expected from spring 2027.

Ocean Housing provides and manages affordable homes across Cornwall and works closely with local authorities, developers and communities to support long-term housing needs.

Nick Long, Managing Director, said: “Delivering affordable homes is a fundamental part of creating balanced, sustainable communities. Partnering with Ocean Housing at both Goonhavern and Trispen ensures these homes will be genuinely affordable and managed by an organisation with strong local knowledge and a long-term commitment to Cornwall. We’re proud to be working together to support local people through these developments.”

Jitinder Takhar, Chief Executive of Ocean Housing said: “Over the last few years Cornwall has seen a significant rise in the numbers of individuals and families needing affordable housing. High demand and limited housing choices has seen many more individuals and families with children faced with the possibility of being homeless or living in temporary accommodation. That’s why we’re really pleased to be partnering with Legacy Properties to bring affordable homes to Goonhavern and Trispen. These developments will provide much-needed permanent homes that give local people more choice and allow them to stay close to the places and communities that matter to them.”

Both developments will be built to modern energy-efficiency standards and designed to integrate sensitively with their village settings, alongside new green space and local infrastructure.
