Property Details
The Deer Park development will comprise a mix of two, three, and four-bedroom houses, catering to first-time buyers, families, and professionals. Specific house types indicated for the site include the two-bedroom semi-detached home (one bathroom), the Strade (a three-bedroom detached house with two bathrooms), and the Lanesborough and Grange house styles (four-bedroom detached houses with two bathrooms). All new homes feature private gardens and designated parking spaces, with a focus on energy efficiency and low running costs. Gleeson Homes is a developer known for specialising in affordable housing across the North of England, having secured planning permission with a commitment to invest over £500,000 into local primary and secondary education provision. This contribution was a condition of the approval process in a growing residential area.
