Plans lodged for 164 Egremont houses

Gleeson Homes is eyeing up the 19-acre site off Uldale View to deliver a mix of detached, semi-detached, and terraced properties in the Cumbrian town.

Design by Pod has drawn up the plans for the development, which would deliver 164 houses in Egremont.

Approval would see 13 two-, 90 three-, 57 four-, and four five-bedroom homes built across two agricultural fields. Of the 164 homes, 16 would be affordable.

Each property would be provided with a front and private back garden, as well off-street parking totalling 341 driveway spaces and 36 detached garages across the site. A further 33 parking bays would be provided for visitors.

More than six acres of green space would be created throughout the estate in the form of a central meadow, as well as low level play equipment including stepping stones, a balance beam, and timber walkways.

There would be 10 affordable homes. Credit: via planning documents
