Adra, one of the main providers of affordable housing in north Wales, is proud to have completed 30 affordable homes for local people in Bethel, Gwynedd ahead of time.

The contractors for the development were Williams Homes (Bala) Ltd.

The development opposite the Cremlyn Estate in Bethel contains 30 modern homes, including 22 houses, 4 bungalows, and 4 flats which are a mixture of social rent and intermediate rent homes.

Owen Bracegirdle, Adra’s Senior Development Project Manager, said: “We are extremely proud to be able to provide quality homes for local people, which have been completed ahead of time. There is so much demand for affordable housing in the area, which reflects the national picture.

“All the houses on the development have an energy performance certificate (EPC) of A, with solar panels and are heated with Air Source Heat Pumps.”

The new estate was officially opened by Councillor Sasha Williams on the morning of Tuesday 2nd December.

Councillor Sasha Williams said: “It was a pleasure to officially open Maes Gwndwn. It has been a privilege for me to be part of the journey to develop these houses in Bethel and to have the opportunity to support local residents.

“The need for local houses in our communities is very high so it is great to see local residents being able to move into their new homes. The houses from Williams Homes are built to a high standard with modern technology to ensure low maintenance costs for residents.

“Many thanks to Adra and Williams Homes for their work and support to the community during the construction period. I hope the residents will be very happy in their new homes.”

Tony Hughes, Managing Director of Williams Homes (Bala) Ltd added: “It has been a privilege to work with Adra to build these houses in Maes Gwndwn. Much needed affordable housing in Bethel – I hope the new residents will be happy in their new homes.”

The project was partially funded through the Welsh Government’s Social Housing Grant, through Cyngor Gwynedd’s Affordable Housing Development Programme, ensuring that these new homes meet the current and future needs of local residents.
