94 of the Flintshire new builds will be affordable homes
Ewloe-based family-run homebuilder Anwyl Homes is set to create a community named Dol Derwen on the edge of the town. A new road will also be formed through the site, linking Gwernaffield Road to Denbigh Road.
Graeme Gibb, sales director at Anwyl Homes Cheshire and North Wales said: "This location offers an attractive setting within convenient distance of everything the thriving market town of Mold has to offer; including several supermarkets, independent shops, restaurants, cafes and highly regarded schools, including both English and Welsh language high schools.

"We've already seen strong interest in our new homes in Mold. With work now underway we're expecting that interest to grow. The first homes will be released for sale towards the end of the summer."
The 28-acre site was allocated for housing in Flintshire County Council's adopted local plan and received planning permission last year. It will feature 94 affordable homes (40% of the total development) alongside 141 private sale homes. Across the development there will be a range of one, two, three and four-bedroom designs.

As part of the planning agreement, Anwyl will contribute towards the local community, including more than £37,500 towards improvements at Ysgol Bryn Gwalia.
Green open space will be a feature throughout the site, which will also have a play area and multi-use games area for residents and the wider community to enjoy.
Graeme added: "To encourage biodiversity on site we'll be creating habitats for local wildlife through new native planting, the retention of mature trees and hedgerows, and the installation of bird and bat boxes."
As part of the new infrastructure works, a new road is being created between Denbigh Road and Gwernaffield Road, enabling Pool House Lane to become a walking/cycling route.
