The Hill Group and its joint venture partner Marshall have secured full Reserved Matters planning for the second phase of the Marleigh development, which will deliver a further 421 new mixed-tenure homes alongside a variety of new public spaces.
This new phase will run in conjunction with the current phase of the scheme, which aims to deliver 547 new homes and a number of community facilities, including a primary school, a nursery, a market square and a community centre over the next five years.
Andy Hill of Hill Marshall LLP said: “We are delighted to have secured planning for the delivery of more homes and community facilities in this exciting new neighbourhood in East Cambridge, which has attracted a broad mix of buyers already.
“We have an unwavering commitment to supporting the wider Cambridge local economy, and it has been excellent to see our efforts supported through this latest approval.”
Construction will start on-site to build the homes in early 2022, when a mix of private and affordable apartments and homes will be delivered as part of the long term masterplan.
