Planning granted for 275 home development in Duckmanton
Housebuilder Honey will build 275 new homes in Duckmanton after being granted planning permission for a £78m development.
Called Pearl and located on Tom Lane, the development will comprise a mix of two-, three-, four- and five-bedroom homes, including terraces, semi-detached and detached properties.
The 41-acre site has been allocated for development by Chesterfield Borough Council as part of the Chesterfield local plan to deliver 4080 homes by 2035.
Work is anticipated to start this summer, with the first homes expected to be occupied by Summer 2026.
Pearl will feature 18 of Honey’s different house types, including terrace, semi-detached and detached properties. Prices at the development will start from £229,995.
Honey chief executive officer, Mark Mitchell, commented: “Our Pearl development will deliver design-led homes that are perfect for modern-day living for buyers looking to move in or to Duckmanton.
“There has already been huge interest in Pearl since we announced our plans, so we now look forward to releasing the first homes for sale later this year at this thriving new community we are creating.”
The article highlights Chesterfield’s access to open spaces as one of its major advantages, stating: “Chesterfield sits on the edge of the Peak District and is home to one of the oldest open-air markets in England, as well as historic medieval alleyways, churches, museums and grand old buildings. Its blend of urban and rural access (being just a short journey from both the Peak District National Park, and Sheffield and Derby) makes it a popular place to live.”
