News on Glasshouse Lane, Exeter

Today sees the launch of Exeter City Living’s engagement programme for a development of new sustainable homes at Glasshouse Lane.

Emma Osmundsen, Managing Director, Exeter City Living said: “Our vision is to create a sustainable development of up to 39 homes which delivers on our ambitions to build new homes to the Passivhaus standard or net zero carbon, low energy, healthy and climate resilient, helping to reduce pressure on the council’s housing waiting list and improving the lives of residents.”

In addition to providing new homes split between 3 or 4 apartment blocks, the proposals seek to connect the adjacent public green spaces from Lakeside play area through to Greenview Court, offering enhancements to the open spaces and improving biodiversity.

From Monday 21 November, the initial proposals are available to view online and give your feedback at https://glasshouselane.commonplace.is/

Residents, community groups and stakeholders will be able to comment on the early proposals for the site during the first round of engagement, which lasts until December 5.

Exeter City Living (ECL) and their project team will be hosting a staffed public exhibition at Newcourt Community Centre, Blakeslee Drive, The Rydons, Exeter EX2 7FN on Tuesday 22 November between 4pm and 7pm. Members of the public can drop-in to the exhibition to view the proposals and speak to Exeter City Living and their project team.

Emma Osmundsen said: “We want to hear from local residents and groups, so please come to our event or have a look at the proposals online and let us know what you think.”
