Grove Airfield is set to expand with 199 new homes, schools, and community spaces, enhancing local living.
Grove: Exciting news for the community! Persimmon Homes is rolling out a new development at Grove Airfield. This project will bring in 199 homes, along with schools and a local center.
They’re planning a mix of housing options, from cozy two-beds to spacious four-beds. Plus, 50 of these homes will be affordable, which is great for the area.
So far, no one has voiced support or concerns to the Vale of White Horse District Council. However, Grove Parish Council did suggest adding a footpath for safer pedestrian access over the runway corridor.
The planning statement highlights that this development will offer various new services, including local centers, schools, and sports pitches. They aim to blend market and affordable homes seamlessly.
They’ve designed the layout to ensure a nice flow, with green spaces and civic areas that everyone can enjoy. The homes will have a modern look while keeping some traditional features.
Streets will be friendly for cyclists and pedestrians, with trees and landscaping included. The overall plan promises plenty of public open space, connecting residents to local amenities.
This project is all about meeting the housing needs in Grove and Wantage while ensuring it’s a welcoming place for future generations. It’s a thoughtful approach to urban design, considering both current and future needs.
