Green light for 136 apartments on former motorcycle retail site
Planning permission has been granted for a 136-apartment scheme in Deritend, Bordesley.
The proposed plans include 58 one-bedroom, 74 two-bedroom, and four three-bedroom apartments. The ground floor is designated for 5,200 sq ft of internal communal amenity space.
Meanwhile, around 9,200 sq ft of shared external amenity space will be developed within a courtyard located at the rear of the building. Certain units will feature private balconies, while others will have ground-floor private amenity space
In a planning meeting on Thursday morning (February 22), councillor Lee Marshall said: “Building on a brownfield site is something we want, however, I would like to see some of the housing labelled as ‘affordable’.”
The scheme was approved unanimously, without any changes.
