Nineteen affordable homes in Chandler Park, Penryn – Falmouth Packet

In the hills of Penryn with views of the town below, Cornwall councillor John Symons welcomed new residents to Ocean Housing’s brand new development at Chandler Park, Penryn.
The 19 affordable homes are the latest addition to the Ocean Group’s ambitious new housing programme of 3,000 homes by 2030, which is making a difference to Cornwall’s housing shortage, whilst investing in the local economy.
“It’s a new dawn for myself and my son, we’re so thankful,” said Mr Davies, one of the new tenants who have moved into the scheme.
“We used to live in an older private rented property, so being able to move into a brand new home with a garden is fantastic, we can’t thank Ocean enough.”
The new homes are a mixture of affordable rent and shared ownership sale helping low-income families get a foot on the housing ladder in Penryn.
The success of the development can be measured against the fact that the day after handover all the new affordable rented properties were let and families were busy moving in.
“It was a busy day handing over the keys to our new customers especially in this heat wave. Everyone has settled in straight away, ready to make the most of their new homes in this fantastic summer weather,” said Craig Rowe, Development Manager.
