A north Cornwall village could gets its own version of Newquay’s pioneering Nansledan by the same developer.
CG Fry and Son has applied to Cornwall Council to build 49 homes – including 25 affordable dwellings – on land south of Trewiston Lane, Pityme, near Rock.
The application for 2.98 hectares of land includes access, highways improvements, landscaping, public open space and associated infrastructure.
A supporting statement says that CG Fry & Son has completed many successful developments in the South West and is currently working in partnership with the Duchy of Cornwall on the delivery of new homes at Nansledan.
It adds: “We are committed to delivering another high quality development on this important site, contributing towards the significant local need for affordable and market homes.
“The proposed scheme has been designed in accordance with the architectural and urban design principles which have been used in numerous successful towns and cities for centuries and which have more recently been applied in developments at Poundbury and Nansledan.”
The affordable homes would be owned and managed by a housing association. A total of 102 parking spaces are proposed, an average of more than two per home, including an allowance for visitor parking.
It is intended that all of the new homes will incorporate heat pumps, taking advantage of ‘free’ environmental heat to boost system efficiencies to 250 per cent or above.
