Approval given for more than 40 open market and affordable homes

Planners have given the go ahead for 43 homes to be developed in Snaith, East Yorkshire.

Lovell Partnerships has gained consent for the scheme, named King’s Reach. It will consist of plots for the open market in addition to affordable properties through Yorkshire Housing and will be located to the west of Butt Lane, on the edge of town.

Outline planning permission had already been granted for the site to be used for residential purposes in August 2021. A new application to agree house types has now also been approved.

Robert Adams, regional managing director at Lovell Partnerships, said: “We listened to the opinions of the local community and council and introduced bungalows to the scheme and are now looking forward to quickly progressing the delivery of high-quality, open market and affordable housing, in a region where demand is high.

“The site covers an area of 1.7 hectares, or 4.3 acres, and the proposed scheme has been designed to be sensitive to its surroundings and respectful to the overall location.

“Increasing our footprint in Yorkshire is a big focus as our reputation and achievements across the East of England continue to go from strength-to-strength through the delivery of high-quality mixed tenure developments, land-led contracting and design and build contracting.”
