Avant Homes West Yorkshire has submitted plans and exchanged contracts to deliver a £19.9m, 80-home development on a 5.63-acre site in Lofthouse Gate, Wakefield.
The Lingwell Gate scheme, which is located on Lingwell Gate Lane, will provide a mix of one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom homes. The proposed development will also feature 15 of Avant Homes’ practically designed, energy efficient house type.
Subject to planning, work at the development is set to commence in August, with the first residents expected to move into their new homes in spring 2025.
Richard Hosie, managing director of Avant Homes West Yorkshire, said: “As a local business, we know first-hand what a great place Wakefield is to live, with its many amenities and excellent access to transport links. Our objective as a housebuilder is to provide quality new homes for everyone whilst developing the communities where we build, and our plans for Lingwell Gate meet those criteria.
“Our proposed development features a mix of practically designed, energy efficient house types that will appeal to a range of buyers, including first time buyers, second steppers, families and downsizers. We now look forward to Wakefield Council considering our plans.”
