Two residential schemes get green lit in Nottingham

Godwin Developments has secured planning consent from Nottingham City Council’s planning committee for the construction of 102 family homes in the Bulwell area in the city.

The mix of two and three bedroom properties will be delivered across two neighbouring developments with a combined land size of 5.2 acres. Both sites are vacant and have been for nearly a decade.

Gurdeep Gill, associate director at Godwin Developments, said: “We are delighted to have secured planning permission for both sites. The developments will support the regeneration of the local area, enhance the provision of high-quality homes in Bulwell and improve local infrastructure. We are also pleased to confirm that these schemes will deliver a higher proportion of affordable homes for the local community than required by planning policy.”

The Maple Fields development, which will be built on the site of the former Henry Mellish School on Kersall Drive, will contain a total of 57 homes, while the Crescent scheme – situated on the previous Piccadilly Playing Field – will provide an additional 45 dwellings to the local area. Both developments were amended after feedback from councillors and residents.

The site is close to a range of nearby amenities, including supermarkets, a doctor’s surgery, home and retail outlets, eateries, a nursery and primary and secondary schools. The new schemes are also located near well-serviced bus routes and are just a 10-minute walk from Bulwell Train Station.

James Mulcare, land director at Godwin Developments, said: “We are extremely pleased to have secured planning approval for both these suburban housing sites, having worked closely with Nottingham City Council and its planning department during the development process.

“Both schemes align well with our core suburban development principles, which aim to provide high-quality homes for families with a wider choice of tenures and help to improve local communities in key regional cities such as Nottingham.”

Throughout the approximate two-year construction period, the developments are set to create over 300 temporary jobs and contribute in excess of £150,000 to the local community and infrastructure.
