Plans have been approved to build 33 homes in Kirkby Malzeard.
Mulberry Homes Yorkshire submitted the proposal to Harrogate Borough Council to construct the scheme off Back Lane in the village.
The development will see a mixture of one, two, three and four bedroom houses built at the site.
A total of 40% of the homes will be allocated for affordable housing.
In a letter to the council, Kirkby Malzeard, Laverton and Dallowgill Parish Council said it welcomed the reduction in homes for the site.
Initially, outline planning permission was granted for 37 homes.
Victoria Preston, clerk at the parish council, said:
“We note that the total number of units proposed is to be 33, rather than the maximum permitted under the outline consent of 37, and we feel that this is a useful reduction, given the concerns of residents in respect of the increased flow of traffic which the development will create through the village.”

The developer said in documents submitted to the council that the scheme would respect the local area and its characteristics.
It said:
“The result of this design process is a proposed development of 33 dwellings, which would be delivered through a variety of house types that promote local distinctiveness.
“The development would be designed to respect the site location, the physical characteristics of the site and the positive architectural elements of existing development which contribute to its sense of place.”
