Planning consent given for 65 new homes in Farnham.
Waverley Planners has given Miller Homes the green light to build the homes on 7.7 acres of land off Hale Road at The Hawthorns. It neighbours Farnham Park and the Six Bells pub.
The developer said construction on the new site, Deer Park, is expected to begin soon.
Miller Homes plans to sell 39 homes on the open market, and 26 properties, including seven to be sold via the First Homes scheme, are to be built as affordable housing.
David Brown, managing director of Miller Homes Southern, said:
“Waverley Borough Council approved our plans to build 65 new homes, of which 26 will be provided as affordable homes, including seven First Homes.
“New residents will be able to enjoy the neighbouring 320-acre Farnham Park, providing a rural, countryside feel to the development, while the proximity to Farnham town centre, train station and the A31 just a few minutes’ drive from the site will provide great flexibility and commutability.We are now focusing on beginning construction work and we will be releasing details of the homes which will be available to buy in the coming months.”
