All the sustainable, energy efficient homes will incorporate Trivselhus UK’s timber panelised system.

Services Provided

Continuum has been involved in the project from inception, working closely with Trivselhus during negotiations with the landowner regarding the purchase of the site. Pre-construction services have included development advice in relation to the compilation of a preferred masterplan for the site, commercial advice relating to RIBA stages 2 and 3, progressing discussions with stakeholders, and assistance in submitting the planning application for the site.

Continuum prepared a Financial Viability Assessment (FVA) submitted in support of the planning application at Frambury Fields. The FVA established the affordable housing quantum and S106 contributions that were viably deliverable at the site. The FVA will help to ensure the sustainable development of the site.

Continuum's involvement assisted the purchase of the site by Trivselhus in 2019.
