Land acquired to build more than 50 homes in village

Persimmon Homes has completed the purchase of land to unlock a new housing development in Anlaby, in the East Riding.

51 homes will be built as part of the final phase of a wider housing development included in the adopted Local Plan of East Riding of Yorkshire Council.

Properties will range from one to four bedrooms, with 13 homes to be handed over to a housing association.

The scheme will bring community benefits including significant public open space and an on-site play area. The developer is also contributing at least £100,000 to local sports facilities and over £80,000 to fund extra places at nearby schools.

Joel Frank, land director for Persimmon Homes Yorkshire, said: “We are pleased to have secured reserved matters planning permission for this exciting development in Anlaby.

“Following the success of our nearby developments, we will once again be working with the local authorities to deliver much needed high quality new homes in the East Riding and Hull.

“This scheme will be the first in the region to showcase our new range of houses and with great access to Hull city centre and excellent commuter links to Leeds and York, we know this scheme will prove popular with homebuyers.”
