Barratt David Wilson has acquired a 13-acre residential development site in Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, with a gross development value of approximately £74 million. The site has been granted hybrid planning permission for 184 new homes, including a mix of one- and two-bedroom apartments and two- to four-bedroom houses.

The development will provide a variety of housing types to cater to families, first-time buyers, and downsizers, contributing to the local housing supply. The project is expected to involve significant investment in local infrastructure and community amenities and will create employment opportunities during construction and after completion.

This acquisition strengthens Barratt David Wilson’s presence in Hertfordshire, following recent successful projects such as Chaulden Meadows in West Hemel Hempstead. The company continues to focus on delivering sustainable communities and supporting local services, reflecting its long-term commitment to the region.
