Honey has submitted plans and exchanged contracts on a 12.4-acre site in Rainworth, near Mansfidl, on which it intends to deliver a £40m, 133 new-home development.
The Melisse development, which is located off Nightjar Way, will comprise a mix of two-, three-, four- and five-bedroom homes and feature 17 of Honey’s different house types.
If approved by Newark & Sherwood District Council, work at Melisse is expected to start in spring 2026 and the first residents are anticipated to move into their new homes in late 2026.
Mark Mitchell, chief executive officer of Honey, said: “We are very pleased to have submitted plans for our Rainworth site, which will further expand our development footprint across the Mansfield and Nottinghamshire region. Our Melisse development will provide prospective buyers in the local area with high specification, thoughtfully designed homes that are unmatched at their price point.
“We now look forward to Newark & Sherwood District Council considering our proposed plans to deliver homes which combine style, substance and sustainability in Rainworth.”
