Land deal paves way for Beeston homes

The site of a former Meeting Hall in a suburb of Nottingham has been sold to local developers, which plans to bring new homes to the area, in a deal brokered by Mather Jamie.

Nottingham’s North Sands Developments has purchased the site of the Meeting Hall (pictured) of the Hillside Gospel Hall Trust, which next to Beeston Fields Drive.

The site, which covers three quarters of an acre and is situated on the corner of Wollaton Road and Hillside Road in Beeston, received outline planning consent for eight new homes from Broxtowe Borough Council on 31 August 2016.

Gary Kirk, associate director of Mather Jamie, said: “This site was sold by Informal Tender and was hotly contested on the deadline day, reflecting the pent-up demand for quality development opportunities in this area and throughout the East Midlands.

“Hillside Road offers developers a rare opportunity to bring new homes to the northern edge of Beeston, a popular and affluent location with fantastic local facilities on the outskirts of Nottingham.”

James Hartley, associate director of North Sands Developments, said: “We look forward to bringing this site forward. It is our intention to launch the houses in 2017 and to bring forward a high quality scheme of detached houses on the site. A full planning application will be submitted as soon as possible.”
