A new ClwydAlyn residential development is taking shaper on the outskirts of Guilsfield with an artist’s impression showing how it will finally look.

Twenty-eight new energy efficient, affordable homes are being built by Williams Homes on behalf of ClwydAlyn in partnership with Powys County Council and the Welsh Government.

Due for completion in Autumn 2025, Tan y Gaer at the Arddleen end of the village will soon be home for residents within a mixture of new properties comprising of one, two, three, and four-bedroom homes.

ClwydAlyn’s aim is to tackle fuel poverty and help minimise the impact less energy efficient homes can have on people’s health and wellbeing, and these new homes exceed the current regulatory standards of the Welsh Government Housing Quality Standard, Welsh Government Development Quality Requirements and Welsh Government Beautiful Homes and Spaces Standards.

Penny Storr, Head of Development and Growth at ClwydAlyn, said: “We’re really excited that construction work has commenced on site, and the finished homes will complement our long-term mission to tackle fuel poverty and improve our residents’ health and wellbeing.

“The homes are being built using greener technologies and innovative designs with natural and sustainable materials, and we anticipate residents moving into the properties in Autumn 2025.”

All homes are built as lifetime homes and designed so that they are easily adaptable to the changing needs of the residents, helping them to live independently for longer. ClwydAlyn said the homes can make a big difference by helping residents support the environment; aiding in saving precious energy, and they could save money in the long run too.

Built using greener technologies and innovative designs, these new homes are super energy efficient and benefit from: air source heat pumps, solar electricity panels and the homes being strategically positioned to maximise solar gain and natural daylight.

ClwydAlyn said they use a Modern Methods of Construction approach whereby they use as many natural and sustainable materials as possible from local manufacturers and suppliers to ensure the carbon footprint is low and the local economy benefits.
