Housebuilder Honey has submitted plans to deliver a £14m development comprising 50 new two, three and four-bedroom homes in the village of South Normanton, Derbyshire.

Called Amber and located on Lees Lane, if planning is granted the 4.5-acre development will be the housebuilding company’s first development since launching in October last year.

Amber will feature 14 housetypes which Honey says have all been specifically designed to combine “style, substance and sustainability” for the benefit of buyers. Prices will start from £184,950 for a two-bedroom mid-terrace home.

If given the go ahead by Bolsover District Council, work at Amber is anticipated to start in spring with the first residents expected to move into their new homes this December.

As well as providing new homes for the area, if planning is granted, Honey will also make a £160,000 contribution to initiatives that will benefit the local community.

Honey was founded by former Avant Homes chief executive officer, Mark Mitchell. Commenting on the proposed development, he said: “We have worked very hard to ensure all our homes will provide buyers with an ideal combination of style, substance and sustainability.

“We know there is strong demand for high quality, high specification new homes in South Normanton so we are pleased to submit our plans for consideration by Bolsover District Council.”

Honey has analysed consumer insights and trends to inform its housetype designs to ensure they meet the needs and wants of today’s new home buyers, including the flexible use of all living spaces.

Standard features in every Honey home include bi fold doors; individually designed fully integrated kitchens; and boutique style bathrooms with a signature free standing bath and full height tiling. All properties will have an electric vehicle charging point.

In addition, the house types will accommodate the Future Homes Standard which requires all new homes being built from 2025 onwards to produce 75-80 per cent less carbon emissions.
