Terra<\/a> has submitted a full planning application for 40 affordable homes in Aston, West Oxfordshire to help alleviate the shortfall in affordable housing<\/h2>\n

The application for affordable homes in Aston features extensive landscaping and public open space and will help to alleviate the current shortfall of 308 affordable homes.<\/a><\/p>\n

The proposed scheme is five miles south of the historic market town of Witney and is only a 10-minute drive from Brize Norton, the UK’s largest RAF base.<\/p>\n

Tackling the affordable housing crisis<\/h3>\n

Jordan Langdon-Bates, land and development director for Terra, commented: \u201cWe are excited about the opportunity to create a quality family-orientated niche development in this picturesque village location.<\/p>\n

“At last count, there were 87 households on the Housing Register who expressed a preference for accommodation within this Civil Parish.<\/p>\n

“Meanwhile, the affordable housing shortfall across West Oxfordshire has been rising in recent years and currently stands at over 300 homes. Our proposals can deliver 40 much-needed homes to help to tackle this affordable housing crisis.<\/p>\n

\u201cDelivering this scheme will significantly add to the housing mix in the immediate area, while also providing high-quality green infrastructure<\/a> across the site, including landscaping and Public Open Space. Bird, bat and insect boxes will be included within the plans, to provide a gain in biodiversity and natural habitat creation. We look forward to working alongside Officers, Councillors and consultees while the application is being considered.\u201d<\/p>\n

The affordable housing in Aston will be accessed via Marsh Furlong, which is a new road created as part of a neighbouring development, recently delivered by Mears Homes and Sovereign Housing Association.<\/p>\n

Terra\u2019s proposals are for three two-bedroom bungalows, 10 two-bedroom homes, 17 three-bedroom houses, and four four-bedroom houses.<\/p>\n

Green infrastructure accounts for approximately 40% of the site area<\/h3>\n

The development proposals include maintaining and enhancing existing trees and planting, and the creation of new native hedgerows.<\/p>\n

A large attenuation pond has also been proposed to manage surface water drainage. The site is at very low risk of potential flooding, and it is not located within a conservation area.<\/p>\n
