PLANS to build 102 new homes off a busy road in Stanway have been unveiled.
Persimmon Homes Essex has applied to Colchester Council for planning permission to create the new estate on land behind number 296 London Road.
The properties will be a mix of two, three and four-bed houses and two and three-bed flats, whilst 31 of the 102 homes will be designated as affordable homes.
The site has been allocated for new homes in Colchester Council’s Local Plan and Persimmon says the new estate would contribute to the borough’s five year housing supply.
A planning report states: “Development on this site will ensure an efficient use of land as well as the additional benefit of physical links with the surrounding area as well as the land adjacent to the west, currently subject to a residential application.
