Search the Public Notice PortalPlans for a new housing development in Lancaster have been approved, paving the way for 58 homes to be built off Slyne Road.
Housebuilder Taylor Wimpey North West has secured planning permission for the scheme, known as Beaumont Rise, which will mark the company’s arrival in the city.
Work on the development is expected to begin in July.
Mix of homes planned
The site will feature a mix of two, three and four-bedroom properties aimed at a range of buyers, including first-time buyers, families and downsizers.
Plans also include public open space, landscaped green areas and pedestrian links throughout the development, alongside energy-efficient features in the new homes.
Developers say existing landscape features on the site will be retained and enhanced as part of the scheme.
Charity donation linked to project
As part of its involvement in the area, the housebuilder has made a £1,000 donation to Lancaster charity Eggcup, which supports people experiencing food poverty.
The funding is expected to go towards equipment at the charity’s new premises, including a portable conveyor belt to help volunteers handle food deliveries more safely and efficiently.
