This site, next to Green Lane and Upperthorpe Road, has been purchased from Harworth Estates and two other private landowners who previously secured outline planning permission for 397 new homes.
The proposal is to transform the former Westthorpe Colliery site into a stunning Derbyshire development of one to five bedroom homes over 45 acres of land, 20% of which would be designated for affordable housing. In addition, financial contributions of circa £750,000 will be made towards Sports Facilities, Education and Health Care in the local community.
Ideal for first time buyers and families alike, residents will be well situated for commuting to Sheffield, Chesterfield and Rotherham with the village’s proximity to the M1. Rother Valley Country Park is also close by for a tranquil retreat, while families will be thrilled by the proximity of Gulliver’s Valley Theme Park and Sheffield Aqua Park.
John Booth, Regional Managing Director for Harron Homes North Midlands, said, “This is a really exciting opportunity to bring a wide range of homes suitable for a range of house-hunters in the area. We’ve taken on board previous concerns related to the number of houses being constructed and have been working closely with the council to generate a proposal to benefit everyone.”
Harron developments can be found across Nottinghamshire, Sheffield and Derbyshire. For further information about Harron Homes, please visit the website, www.harronhomes.com.
