Plans submitted for new development in Burgh-by-Sands

Posted on: January 5, 2019

We are pleased to confirm submission of a detailed planning application to build 24 new homes in Burgh-by-Sands. The village – once a Roman Fort called Aballava – has a primary school, a pub and a post office and is close to Carlisle and the Solway Firth.

The development will feature a variety of our thoughtfully designed properties including 2, 3, 4 and 5-bedroom houses and bungalows. All our homes offer a high specification as standard and the house designs will complement their environment and work together to promote a lovely neighbourhood feel.

The site is allocated for housing within Carlisle City Council’s local plan and was granted outline planning consent in 2016. Four of the properties will be allocated as affordable.

John Blue, Head of Land at Genesis Homes, said: “We’re pleased to confirm that we’ve now submitted detailed plans for a new development in Burgh-by-Sands. All our houses are built to a high specification and we look forward to providing quality new homes to the village.”
