The Eagles Edge estate, which is off Mansfield Road, Redhill, could be expanded by 141 homes if Gedling Borough Council's planning committee follows advice to grant permission for the project on Wednesday, March 27
An important decision will soon be made on whether more than 100 new homes can be added to a Nottinghamshire housing estate. The Eagles Edge housing development, which is off Mansfield Road, Redhill, could be expanded by 141 homes if Gedling Borough Council's planning committee follows advice to grant permission for the project next week, on Wednesday, March 27.
The first stage, which comprises 72 homes, has been constructed and is largely occupied. The estate's developers Barwood Homes Ltd, MF Strawson & Magal Investments LLP Agent now want to use the 6.95 hectares for its next phase, which would have almost twice the amount of houses as the first. In planning documents, the builder said there would be a mix of detached, semi-detached and terraced housing, with 21 different house types available for prospective buyers. The property developer said 21 of the properties would be classed as affordable, with 15 these being First Homes and the remaining six being affordable rent.
Nottinghamshire County Council said that while there were spaces for the expected increase in demand for primary education, the developers would have to contribute £799,180 for secondary and post 16 education needed to support the new estate. This would be spent on education in the Arnold area. The county council also requested £35,000 be provided to fund a three-month bus pass for future residents, with a further £57,400 for two new bus stops on each side of Mansfield Road. The authority added £5,074 would be required from the developers to ensure the area's libraries were stocked up.
