Orbit Homes to deliver new affordable homes in Keresley, Coventry

Orbit Homes is continuing its commitment to deliver quality, energy efficient new homes in the Midlands after agreeing a partnership with Bellway for the delivery of 62 affordable homes at its Arden Glade development in Keresley, Coventry.

Orbit Homes will offer a mix of one and two-bedroom apartments, one-bedroom maisonettes and two, three and four-bedroom houses at Arden Glade. Over 60% of these homes will be available for social rent and affordable rent, with the remainder available for purchase through Shared Ownership.

The new homes will be built by Bellway, and all Orbit Homes properties will achieve an energy efficiency rating of EPC B. All homes will include solar PV panels, an individual electric vehicle charging point and a renewable-based heating system as standard, as well as flooring and turf throughout.

Orbit Homes is set to release its first homes for purchase through Shared Ownership at Arden Glade in Summer 2026.

Brian Nearney, Chief Development Officer at Orbit, said: “We’re delighted to be working alongside Bellway to increase the availability of quality energy-efficient affordable homes in the local area at Arden Glade. This partnership continues our investment across the Midlands, and we are especially proud to be delivering over 60% of these new homes for social and affordable rent, continuing our commitment to support the local housing need. 

“We’re excited to see this site progress and look forward to sharing more details about the homes that will be available soon.”

Teresa Bronson-Blackham, Sales Manager at Bellway West Midlands, said: “Our Arden Glade development is delivering a wide range of both private and affordable homes to help meet the area’s housing needs. Our partnership with Orbit Homes will provide opportunities for local people to buy through shared ownership, or to rent, a high-quality and energy-efficient property in this attractive location on the western edge of Coventry.

“In keeping with our company-wide commitment to sustainable practices, all the homes at Arden Glade feature green technologies such as solar PV panels and electric vehicle charging points which will enable residents to minimise their carbon emissions and their energy bills.”

Arden Glade is situated in Keresley on the outskirts of Coventry, offering residents the best of both worlds with its semi-rural surroundings and Coventry city centre just a 10-minute drive away. A well-connected location, locals can also reach both Coventry train station and Canley train station in a 10-minute car journey from Arden Glade.
