Housebuilder acquires 'sweet' site with plans to deliver new home development in Edwinstowe

The proposed site, which will be called Homes by honey at Thoresby Vale, is located off Ollerton Road and part of the wider Thoresby Vale masterplan.

The land was acquired from land and property regeneration company Harworth Group.

Subject to planning, Homes by Honey will comprise a mix of three – four – and five-bedroom homes and will include semi-detached and detached properties.

Sheffield-headquartered Honey says its house types have all been specifically designed to combine “style, substance and sustainability” for the benefit of buyers.

Prices for homes at the development will be released if planning is granted.

Located on the former Thoresby Colliery, Thoresby Vale is redevelopment masterplan to create a new sustainable community.

Once complete, it will comprise 800 new homes, a new primary school, a local centre and up to 250,000 square feet of commercial space.

If given the go ahead by Nottinghamshire Council, work at Homes by honey at Thoresby Vale is anticipated to start in June with the first residents expected to move into their new homes in June 2025.

Mark Mitchell, Honey chief executive officer, said: “Our proposed development will provide much needed new homes for people living in, or wanting to move to, Edwinstowe whether they are first time buyers, second steppers, families or downsizers.

“We have painstakingly designed a range of house types that combine style, substance and sustainability.

“This ensures our buyers, and the wider community in which we build, benefit from a high quality, high specification development.”

A Honey spokesperson said the company has analysed consumer insights and trends to inform its house-type designs to ensure they “meet the needs and wants” of today’s new home buyers, including the flexible use of all living spaces.

Standard features in every Honey home include bi fold doors; individually designed fully integrated kitchens; and boutique style bathrooms with a signature free standing bath and full height tiling.

All properties will have an electric vehicle charging point.

In addition, the house types will accommodate the Future Homes Standard which requires all new homes being built from 2025 onwards to produce 75-80 per cent less carbon emissions.
