Plans have been submitted to build 146 homes in Harrogate.

Cumbrian housebuilder Story Homes has applied to North Yorkshire Council for permission to build the homes on land east of Otley Road in Harrogate.

A media release by Story Homes today said the land is allocated for housing in the Harrogate District Local Plan 2014-35, which outlines where development can take place.

The development would be built in partnership with housing association Home Group and 40% of the homes would be classed as affordable.

The scheme would include landscaped open space and a £500,000 community infrastructure levy, which is a charge levied by local authorities on new developments.

The site off Otley Road.



Today's media statement said:

"The scheme proposes a mix of high quality, high specification homes designed for modern living, with open plan living spaces and enviable kerb appeal.
"Properties will range from one-bedroom apartments to six-bedroom detached homes and will include fully fitted designer kitchens with A-rated appliances, as well as luxurious finishes throughout."


Hannah Richins, planning manager for Story Homes North West said the scheme would "introduce our beautifully crafted homes into a new housing market".

Home Group, under its brand Persona Homes, has already delivered over 220 homes on Skipton Road in Harrogate.

Kitson Keen, director of development at Home Group said:

“Story Homes deliver high quality properties which will enhance the availability of quality affordable homes in Harrogate.”
