Proposed Residential Scheme for 17 Dwellings at
Land south of Greave Road, Hade Edge.
What is Proposed?
Jones Homes intends to submit a detailed full planning application to Kirklees Council for residential development of the site south of Greave Road and north of Boshaw View.
This consists of circa 0.65 hectares (approx 67%) of the safeguarded land designation of SLS18 which totals 0.97 ha. Kirklees Council have indicated the safeguarded land designation could accommodate around 33 new dwellings.
The application will seek approval for around 17 new homes, with a new access from Greave Road and includes estate roads, landscaping and parking.
All dwellings would be two storeys in height. The proposed housing mix would consist of 3x two bedroom homes; 2x three bedroom homes; 11x four bedroom homes; and 1x five bedroom home.
Both of the existing trees on the site are to be retained, with a further twelve trees planted across the development.
The proposed layout depicts Jones Homes current vision on how the housing development may be laid out.
Design Principles
To develop a comprehensive, high quality residential development, which is distinctive and respectful of the local character and makes a positive contribution to the wider locality.
Positively contribute to meeting local housing demand and needs, with the right range of products and house types to suit market conditions.
The proposed development will respect separation distances and the need for privacy and establish a positive relationship to the existing/ adjoining properties.
The proposals will use a similar design and materials as the existing Jones Homes Development at Boshaw View, making the development contiguous with its surroundings.
Plots provide amenity space to enhance local biodiversity.
Plots have been designed around the internal roads which have been carefully positioned to avoid a linear layout and create a more aesthetic site plan.
Boundary walls will be retained wherever possible to keep the rural character of the site.
Sufficient resident and visitor parking contained within the development to ensure there are no affects of parking to Hade Edge.
20% Affordable Housing in line with Council Policy.
Potential funding for local services and infrastructure through Section 106 contributions.
