A report submitted on behalf of applicant Gleeson Homes states the proposals would “provide a high quality and attractive development and represent a significant opportunity to secure the positive development of a former unused, overgrown site”.
Planning documents state that the development would consist of 29 two-bedroom and 41 three-bedroom semi-detached properties, along with 40 three-bedroom and five four-bed detached properties.
Each would be allocated a minimum of one parking space, plus a garage and private rear garden.
“The proposals create a good spread of house types, sizes, mix / choice across the whole site allowing the proposal to cater to a full spectrum of the population in Gainsborough and surrounding areas as well as for other areas of the UK assuming they are relocating to the area,” the report adds.
