An ambitious housebuilder is set to start work on creating over 300 new homes over three developments within a four-week period.

Genesis Homes and sister company Russell Armer Homes are set to build 304 houses in areas spanning three districts.

Russell Armer will carry out the largest single development in its 60-year history when it constructs 157 homes and apartments at Meadow Rigg, in Kendal, in addition to the 65 new houses planned at Bowland Fold, in Halton, Lancaster.

At the same time, Genesis Homes will create 82 new dwellings at Eamont Chase in Carleton, near Penrith.

The developments come at a time of huge growth for Genesis Homes which was founded by Nicky Gordon in 2017. Having acquired Russell Armer Homes in April, the group is on target to produce over 200 new homes in the coming year.

Nicky said: “We are certainly anticipating a busy few months and it is with great pride that we are able to provide so many homes to areas which need additional housing.

“It is amazing how quickly the company has grown and it brings us great satisfaction that there is such a demand in the housing we provide.”

The work to construct 157 homes at Meadow Rigg, to be located just off Burneside Road in Kendal, is the largest project to be carried out by the Russell Armer Homes team. The development comprises one to four bedroom houses and apartments.

As part of the development, Russell Armer Homes will provide £277,000 to help fund the purchase of a much-needed water culvert at the nearby Burneside Road to significantly reduce the flood risk in the area. The area has been flooded five times since 2004.

In Lancaster, Russell Armer will also build 65 two to four bedroom homes.

Genesis Homes, meanwhile, will construct 82 two to five bedroom houses and bungalows in Carleton. Genesis has committed £200,000 to provide extra teaching space for secondary school education at Ullswater Community College as part of its planning permission being granted.
