Behind-the-scenes look at new Taunton development

Our joint venture plans to build new homes in Taunton are available to view on new web platform
Comeytrowe

A website has launched to provide a behind-the-scenes look at Orchard Grove, the major new development at Comeytrowe. 

Construction has started to bring 2,000 new homes to Taunton and we are delighted to be delivering the affordable homes on the site.

The website - www.orchard-grove.com - offers information, updates, and ways to communicate with the consortium of housebuilders behind the development – which sees us in a joint venture with our valued partner, Vistry Group.

The new website outlines the vision behind the development, which will be created over the next decade and deliver 2,000 new homes, amenities and public green space. 

As work on the garden community progresses, a dedicated news section will provide interesting updates on the site and its milestones. 

Given that work started on site last month, the new development is beginning to gain more public interest and the website features a FAQ section, giving answers to a host of questions about future plans, infrastructure and amenities, and issues of interest to those living locally. 

This will be updated regularly, and Parish councils have been invited to submit questions. Keen to ensure those interested in Orchard Grove have the chance to contact the team behind the development, the website also includes information on how to get in touch. 

A new email address has been created, and all queries regarding the development can now be directed to info@orchard-grove.com, which the project team will respond to. 

Our Head of Marketing and Sales, Debra Saunders, said: “We’re pleased to be working with Vistry Partnerships to build much-needed housing in Taunton, and provide local people and families with secure, long-term homes that they can afford to buy and rent.

“The new website will be fantastic for keeping people up-to-date with the development and give them a unique insight into all aspects of the scheme.”

Sue Scholfield, from Vistry Group and the Orchard Grove Consortium, said: “This is such an impressive project and we know people are already curious about what is planned. 

“Our new website will help shed light on the vision behind Orchard Grove, how it will take shape over time, and updates on our progress. 

“We welcome the opportunity for people to get in touch, so we have opened the lines of communication with a dedicated email and informative website – and we hope this will prove both useful and interesting.”
