Graham Whiteford, planning director at Persimmon Yorkshire said: “We’re pleased that Councillors have approved this application for high quality new homes for local people.

“This will deliver both a mix of homes from one, to four-bedroom properties as well as significant funding for much needed improvements in local bus services.

“We look forward to continuing to work with the Council and the community to bring these plans to fruition.”

Persimmon say the homes will be built on the site off Low Eggborough Road with a mix of detached, semi-detached and terraced properties.

In addition 11 of the new homes will be available as affordable rent or sold at a discount as part of the First-Homes initiative.  

All properties will be fitted with low carbon heat pumps with electric vehicle charging points provided to every home.

Residents will also be able to enjoy areas of green public open spaces and outdoor gym equipment.

In addition to the new homes, the housebuilder will be investing significant funding to improve local bus services and local healthcare provision.

Built to new building regulations, the new homes will benefit from improved energy efficiency, helping reduce energy bills for homeowners.

The proposed development includes a substantial Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) contribution earmarked to support local infrastructure improvements.

Plans for the development include a dedicated children's play space and over two acres of public open space and woodland planting.
