New round of Government funding to boost urban regeneration

New round of Government funding to boost urban regeneration

In this quick speed read, we look at the distribution of Government Funds for urban regeneration

  • 41 councils across the country have been allocated funds to kickstart regeneration projects which could deliver over 2,200 homes for local communities.
  • So far, only £35 million of the £180 million Brownfield Land Release Fund 2, announced earlier this month by the DLUHC, has been allocated.
  • The remaining £140 million will be distributed over the next two years and is expected to create up to 17,600 new homes and support up to 54,000 jobs in the housebuilding sector.
  • There are 59 regeneration projects in this initial round, helping to transform derelict sites such as disused car parks and old industrial sites and deliver high-quality homes.

Knowing how house prices differ across the UK can really help when you're thinking about moving, investing, or staying put. As an estate agent in Attleborough, I always keep an eye on both local trends and the national picture. This week, I’ve been exploring the average value of a four-bedroom home around the country.

Once overlooked, bungalows are fast becoming some of the most desirable homes in Attleborough and beyond. With demand soaring, supply scarce, and prices per square foot outpacing other property types, these single-level homes are proving both practical and prestigious. Here’s why they’re back in fashion.

Bungalows aren’t built equal across the UK—sizes swing widely. Northern Ireland tops the list at 1,170 sq.ft, while Yorkshire & the Humber trails at 875 sq.ft, a 34% gap. When downsizing, would you trade your location for extra room?

For many in Attleborough, moving from a 2- to 3-bedroom home signals life changes—more space, a home office, or a growing family. But that extra bedroom comes at a price. In Attleborough, the jump can be steep, especially in sought-after areas. If you're thinking of upsizing, it pays to know what that third bedroom might really cost.
