Cumbrian housebuilder Story Homes has lodged its plans to build 156 new properties in Carlisle.
It has applied for planning permission for the estate on land at Orton Road in Carlisle, which forms part of the wider land at Newhouse Farm.
The land is allocated for residential development for over 500 homes in the Carlisle District Local Plan 2015-2030.
Story Homes’ proposals include a range of two to five-bedroom homes, plus a selection of affordable homes available, it said.
Development planner Paul Fenton, said: “We carried out a public consultation late last year and have sought to incorporate comments received in formulating our planning application which has now been submitted to Carlisle City Council.
“This scheme will make an important contribution towards housing delivery, including provision of affordable homes, bungalows, and an element of accessible and adaptable homes.”
The developer added that the scheme, if approved, will deliver environmental benefits including a pond, public open space, soft landscaping and tree lined streets.
