Developer lodges plans for 139 homes in North Yorkshire

Plans for 139 new homes in Hemingbrough, Selby, have been submitted to North Yorkshire Council by housebuilder Persimmon.

This proposed development is situated on an allocated site for housing in the draft emerging Selby Local Plan.

Persimmon’s plans include a range of one to four-bedroom homes, all equipped with electric vehicle chargers and bike sheds provided for homes without garages.

20% of all homes will be transferred to a housing association or sold at a discount to open market value.

Residents will benefit from 1.2 acres of public open space, including the construction of a children’s play area.

Although details are to be finalised, a Section 106 agreement currently includes an education contribution of approximately £190,000 towards Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) provision and Early Years education.

Joel Frank, land director at Persimmon Yorkshire, said: “We are pleased to submit plans for new homes in Hemingbrough.

“This project will provide much-needed homes for local people and enhance the community with new amenities and public open spaces.

“We look forward to working with North Yorkshire Council and local stakeholders to bring this project to life.”
