New houses in Sutton garden among the latest Ashfield planning applications

The plan is for 14-14A Norman Avenue, which is close to Station Road, King’s Mill Road East and the town’s Wickes home improvement store.

Outline planning permission, with all matters reserved, has been requested for a maximum of five single-storey, three-bedroom dwellings at the rear and within the side garden of the current property at 14A.

Documents list Zoet Thompson as the applicant, while plans have been drawn up by the Mansfield-based architectural design consultant, Barry Jarvis, of B A Architecture Ltd.

The site spans 2,378 square metres and an ecological report, sent to the council, suggests grassland and trees would be lost if the plan went ahead. A private drive, to be used as access, would be expanded and the properties would go up for sale on the open market.

Council officers are currently considering the plan and hope to make a decision, or recommendation, by Thursday, October 17. Comments can be posted by residents on the council’s website here.
