Gleeson Homes has partnered with Lloyds Living to expand its presence in the private rental sector, delivering 170 properties across three mixed-tenure schemes in the North of England. The developments are located in Knottingley, Wakefield; Chopwell, County Durham; and Goldthorpe, Barnsley.
The partnership reflects the growing demand for professionally managed rental homes in regional markets, with Lloyds Living overseeing operations and Gleeson leading construction. Both companies emphasise the importance of sustainability in new housing delivery, with most units set to feature air-source heat pump technology to reduce running costs and lower emissions.
Work is already underway across the sites, with phased completions scheduled between 2025 and 2027. The agreement highlights the growing importance of large-scale partnerships in accelerating the rental housing supply, particularly in areas where affordable, energy-efficient homes are in short supply.
Graham Prothero, CEO at MJ Gleeson plc, commented:
“We are delighted to be working in partnership with Lloyds Living again. We both share a vision for a future where everyone has access to high-quality housing without compromising on value. We’re proud to be part of building thriving communities that will be around for years to come.”
