Construction News Image

Spitfire Homes is to contribute over £7 million to the Bishop's Cleeve community in Cheltenham.

Committed to supporting the area, Spitfire is making positive contributions to local facilities including improvements to education, sports facilities and public transport.

Spitfire has already sold 90% of the properties in the first phase at Fairmont and has marked this with the launch of Phase Two. The design-led homes on Phase Two offer between two- and five-bedrooms and will be ready to move into from Spring 2024.

Spitfire is dedicated to creating sustainable communities and in total, there will be 215 stylish properties at Fairmont which are all designed to suit the needs of modern lifestyles. All homes at Fairmont include sustainability features that ensure each property is energy efficient and future proofed, including air source heat pumps, smart heating systems and electric car charging points as standard.

Fairmont is located in the well-situated village of Bishop’s Cleeve, and Spitfire’s design-led approach and hand-selected materials and finishes are proving very popular with discerning purchasers looking for stylish homes.

Since opening the show homes at Fairmont at the end of last year, Spitfire Homes has been awarded both Housebuilder of the Year and Small Housebuilder of the Year in 2023.

Matt Vincent from Spitfire Homes said: "Delivering this contribution to the local community at Bishop’s Cleeve builds on our strategy to support the communities where we operate and aligns with our Sustainable Futures framework for operating as a socially responsible company.

"With Phase One 90% sold we're pleased to be releasing Phase Two to meet the clear and significant demand for quality new homes within the local area. The first properties on Phase Two will be ready to move in from Spring 2024."
