Developer tables plan for 55 retirement homes in Kirk Hammerton
A developer has lodged plans to create 55 retirement homes and a community hub in Kirk Hammerton.
SageHaus Living, which is based in the Isle of Man, has submitted the proposal to Harrogate Borough Council for land off Station Road in the village.
It would see 55 park homes built, which the developer said would be “sustainable modular retirement bungalows”.
A hub would also be built, which would be open for the community to use for meetings and other activities.
The developer said in documents submitted to the council that scheme would help bring more retirement accommodation to the district, while also being environmentally friendly.
It said:

The proposal comes as SageHaus acquired the land, known as Carlton Fields, back in 2021.
In a statement on its website, the company said the nine acre site would help to provide a “peaceful community”.
Simon Westray, managing director of SageHaus Living:
Harrogate Borough Council will make a decision on the plan at a later date.
