We’re delighted to have submitted a Reserved Matters application to build a new development in the village of Cumwhinton, following the grant of Outline Planning Permission in August.
The plan for the scheme features 19 homes, with a mix of 2, 3 and 4-bedroom houses and bungalows. Genesis Homes offer a high specification as standard and are proud to build houses that ‘just work’, which include substantial plots and generous outdoor space. The site is allocated for housing within Cumbria County Council’s Local Plan and five of the properties will be allocated as ‘affordable’.
The village of Cumwhinton has a primary school, a post office, a community hall and a traditional pub, and is close to the River Eden, surrounded by picturesque walks and cycle rides. It is well known as a gathering-place for supporters cheering on the Great Cumbrian Run. The M6 motorway/A69 is only a couple of minutes away and Carlisle city centre can be reached in a few minutes.
Genesis Homes’ Head of Land John Blue said: “The village of Cumwhinton is a wonderful place to live and we’re pleased to submit plans to build a new neighbourhood there. We’ve had excellent feedback on our completed homes in Wigton and plenty of interest in upcoming developments, so we’re looking forward to helping meet the demand from homebuyers in the area.”
