Hotels to Homes schemes is at the former Seabury Hotel
The second of our Hotels to Homes schemes is at the former Seabury Hotel on Manor Road, Torquay.
Hotels to Homes is a landmark, Council-led, multi-million-pound investment programme designed to help address Torbay’s housing crisis by redeveloping brownfield sites.
All the homes will be provided to households with a local connection to Torbay and will be let at a ‘social rent’.
This means that they will be affordable to local people living and working in the area.
The Seabury site has planning consent for 14 homes secured by the previous owner.
The buildings were in a poor state, so over the summer a local specialist contractor has been demolishing them and clearing the site ready for redevelopment.
Local people will be given a chance to view and comment on the emerging proposals for the site.
The Council intends to use this scheme to help key local employers such as the NHS retain and attract staff to work and live in Torbay. This will support long-term sustainability of public services.
