Edenstone Group is developing an eight-acre quarry into a housing development in Bleadon after receiving planning permission form North Somerset Council.
The quarry, which was bought from Marshalls already had outline planning permission.
After acquiring the site Edenstone submitted a reserved matters application detailing its proposals, after working closely with Bristol-based Grassroots Planning.
After demolition and remediation work, construction of 29 private sale properties and 13 affordable homes will begin in late summer/ autumn. These homes will be a mix of two, three and four-bedroom homes, plus office and retail space.
Environmental measures include a tree-lined main street, green open space for community events, cycle storage, a community orchard and pond, plus electric vehicle charging facilities.
The first homes at the development should be on sale in early 2024, while the whole scheme will be completed by the end of 2025.
