Village envelope almost fully developed Wootton Bridge Housing Needs Assessment 2013

  13. 5 year estimate of housing requirements – size/tenure/type Comparison of local requirements size type tenure affordability and accessibility with the profile of likely vacancies produces gaps: 11 X 3 bedroom accessible bungalows for sale 3 X 3 bedroom accessible bungalows for social rent 4 X 2 bedroom flats for sale Demand for larger homes from outsiders will be met from vacancies.

  14. Overall conclusions Island plan and survey estimates are similar Difficult for the village to achieve a more balanced stock and resident profile Requirements of younger households can be met in nearby towns The main gap in supply is move on housing for older residents Most respondents would accept small scale development for local people High demand for local shops and services due to passing trade Wootton Bridge Housing Needs Assessment 2013
