Planning approved for five homes in Bourne

Phoenix Sustainable Investments is pleased to announce that its Technical Team has successfully secured planning permission for five new homes in Bourne, Lincolnshire.

The approved development will deliver much-needed new housing for the local area while demonstrating Phoenix’s clear commitment to delivering homes that are Future Homes Standard ready – aligning with the direction of UK housing regulation and environmental policy.

Designed with energy efficiency, low-carbon performance and future-proofed building fabric at their core, the new homes will showcase how high-quality, regulation-ready housing can be delivered today, not deferred to future policy deadlines. The scheme reflects Phoenix’s forward-thinking approach to sustainable residential development, balancing practical delivery with long-term environmental responsibility.

Karl Hick, Chairman of Phoenix Sustainable Investments said:

‘This approval is an important milestone for Phoenix and a clear demonstration of how we intend to approach housing delivery going forward.’

‘We are committed to delivering homes that are not only well designed and commercially viable, but genuinely future-ready, meeting forthcoming standards on energy efficiency and carbon reduction today, rather than waiting for regulation to force change.’

This milestone marks a significant step for the Phoenix Technical Team and sends a clear message of intent that Phoenix is ready to help shape the next generation of sustainable housing.

As the business continues to build momentum, Phoenix is actively developing wider plans to establish a new housing delivery operation across the East Midlands and East Anglia, supporting regional growth while responding to the UK’s evolving sustainability and performance standards.

Further updates will be shared as these plans progress.
