Developer sets out new details for 475-home estate
GoogleDevelopers have unveiled further details of their plans for an estate of 475 homes on the outskirts of Hinckley.
Countryside Properties intends to build the homes north of the A47 Normandy Way and east of Stoke Road.
The scheme was given the go-ahead by a government inspector in 2024 after Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council refused it planning permission.
However, a new application has been submitted for the site laying out the development's finer details.
The Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS) said the latest documents did not provide any information about a potential new primary school, for which land has been set aside.
Countryside Properties' new planning application said there would be a mix of one-bed maisonettes, bungalows and flats and larger homes.
The developer has said it would deliver at least 95 affordable properties.
A number of children's play areas and green spaces, including three parks, are also included in the plans
The developer has said that "the vision for the site is to provide a new living environment of the highest standard".
