Housing developer Lovell Partnerships is set to begin construction of 309 homes on a brownfield site in Newark, Nottinghamshire with contracts now complete following the approval of reserved matters by Newark and Sherwood District Council.
Alongside public space, complete with a children’s playground and extensive tree planting, the community of 309 homes will offer a mix of one-, two-, three- and four-bed semi-detached, detached and terrace homes, as well as five bungalows.
Beth Bundonis, regional managing director at Lovell in the East Midlands, said: “The former Flowserve site in Newark offers incredible potential in terms of a strong location that is ideal for commuting to cities such as Nottingham and Lincoln, or to London. It will offer more choice and availability to local house hunters, creating modern and efficient homes for those looking to get onto the property ladder, downsize or wanting to scale up into a larger family home.
“Working with CB Collier throughout the planning process has been incredibly fruitful and all partners are aligned with the aim of regenerating this brownfield land into much-needed homes that support housing targets in the East Midlands.”
Edward Taylor, director at CB Collier said: “At CB Collier, we are passionate about redeveloping underutilised brownfield land and our mission statement is to create environments where people want to live and work. Since acquiring the former Flowserve site, we successfully navigated a series of complex planning applications and conducted extensive demolition, remediation, flood defence, and watercourse diversion works.
“We are very excited to announce the completion of the sale with Lovell. Since we were introduced to East Midlands team at Lovell, they have been incredibly professional, efficient and a pleasure to work with. We are grateful for their efforts in getting this ‘over the line’ and our team look forward to working with Lovell again in the future.”
Working alongside property developers CB Collier, the project will be delivered on the former factory site of the Flowserve Pump Division, providing 45 acres of land with 37 acres available immediately for redevelopment. The plans relating to the design and layout were previously approved in June 2021 with the application relating to reserved matters on scale and appearance also gaining approval in July 2024.
