Two innovative modular homes have been lifted into place and assembled on the Gr\u0175p Cynefin<\/a> site at Cynwyd, Denbighshire<\/h2>\n

The two Gr\u0175p Cynefin homes were built offsite as modular units and lifted into place by crane on site. The new properties are in addition to the six traditionally built houses already owned by Gr\u0175p Cynefin.<\/p>\n

The scheme, in partnership with the Welsh Government\u2019s innovative housing programme, will help reduce energy costs for future tenants. The ready-made, two-bedroom homes are designed to retain heat, with environmentally friendly timber frames<\/a> helping keep the properties warm.<\/p>\n

Time spent on the project by contractor Jones Bros Weston Rhyn<\/a> has also been reduced in comparison with traditionally built houses. Specialist manufacturer F1 Modular<\/a>, based in Newtown, produced the modular units.<\/p>\n

Dylan Roberts, regeneration services director at Gr\u0175p Cynefin, said: \u201cWe\u2019re pleased to be providing these homes for our tenants, who will enjoy a high-quality finish for modern and comfortable living.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have worked with modular units before, and would like to do more in the future, as it is an effective way of building properties in an efficient manner. In addition, manufacturing them in a factory significantly increases quality.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis project is an important part of our development programme, as we aim to build 120 new homes a year for the next few years, and are actively looking for more opportunities to develop.\u201d<\/p>\n

Commissioning work is now taking place on the site, with completion scheduled for April.<\/p>\n
