New homes on one of Plymouth’s newest energy-efficient housing developments are now available for purchase.
Sustainable Housing in Plymouth: A New Development Takes Shape
The ten new sustainable homes, built on the site of the former Morley Youth Centre, off Broadland Gardens in Plymstock, are available in a mix of two, three, and four-bedroom options.
Market Entry: Homes Ready for Sale as Building Nears Completion
With building work now at the ‘topping out’ stage, local estate agent Lang, Town and Country have begun marketing the homes for sale. The new development has seen the direct delivery of new homes by Plymouth City Council for the first time this century.

Environmental Considerations: Heated with Modern, Energy-Efficient Technology
Heated with modern, energy-efficient technology to help achieve low carbon living, particular attention has been paid to their design so that they are adaptable and sustainable. They have been built by local construction firm Classic Builders.
Funding and Repayment: Broadland Gardens Development
The Broadland Gardens development has been funded through the council’s Plan for Homes Investment Fund. All of the homes will be sold on the open market, with surplus repaid back into Plan for Homes for the provision of affordable housing elsewhere in the city.
Councillor’s View: Meeting Housing Needs and Standards
Councillor Chris Penberthy, Cabinet member for Housing, Cooperative Development, and Communities, said:
“The Broadland Gardens development has reached a truly exciting stage with these fantastic homes really starting to take shape. “We are in the middle of a housing crisis and we need more houses in Plymouth. This direct delivery project helps in two ways.”
Market Impact: Setting a Standard and Investing in Affordable Housing
“Firstly, it sets a standard for the market and allows us to deliver the kind of energy-efficient, modern homes that Plymouth needs. But crucially, it also allows us to take the surplus generated and invest it in delivering affordable housing elsewhere in the city.”
Agent’s Perspective: Lang Town & Country on Broadland Gardens
Matthew Minett, land and new homes manager at Lang Town & Country, said of the development: “We are delighted to be acting as the marketing agents for Broadland Gardens.
“This is an exciting project which will provide quality homes that are flexible, sustainable and futureproof. We look forward to offering prospective purchasers the opportunity to buy an exceptional family home that can adapt with the needs of the modern family and is built to last.”
