Persimmon Homes has submitted plans to North Yorkshire Council to construct 150 new homes on Firthland Road in Pickering, North Yorkshire. The development will include a mix of 2-4 bedroom homes, with 35% designated as affordable housing. All homes will feature EV chargers and adhere to new energy efficiency regulations. The project is designed with a landscape-led approach, retaining existing site features such as hedgerows. Additionally, Persimmon will contribute to local infrastructure improvements through a Section 106 agreement. The site is conveniently located near public transport links. Graham Whiteford, Planning Director at Persimmon Yorkshire, expressed enthusiasm for the project, highlighting its alignment with the growing demand for housing in the region.
