Green light for luxury resi scheme

Twenty-nine luxury homes are set to be built near Melton Mowbray in the New Year after Leicestershire housebuilder Springbourne Homes secured planning approval for the scheme.

The development at Sandy Lane, Little Dalby will consist of three, four and five bedroom homes, including seven bungalows, spread across a ten-acre site.

Planning chiefs at Melton Borough Council gave the scheme the thumbs up on Wednesday night (7 December).

Springbourne Homes chairman Adrian Burr said: “I am delighted to confirm that we will start construction at Sandy Lane after the festive period.

“We have worked alongside Melton Borough Council to agree these plans and we’re now keen to start work on what we believe will be another successful development.

“There’s a lot of negativity in the construction industry at the moment but there’s none of that here at Springbourne. We are feeling very upbeat and positive.

“We’re excited that we’ll soon be moving into Melton to deliver our unique brand of aspirational homes which have been the bedrock of our success story for almost 30 years now.”
