Ten properties are being built with first residents expected to be able to move in this autumn
A Yorkshire-based housebuilder has released the first images of a new development that is under way in an East Riding village. Mulgrave Properties is building ten houses at Bubwith.
The small development is called The Orchard and will occupy a one-acre site off Main Street. New computer-generated images provided by the company show the two, three, four and five-bedroom designs, which will all have garages or off-road parking, as well as front and rear gardens.
Debbie Foster, sales director at Mulgrave Properties, said: “These images provide the first glimpse of the new homes we are building at The Orchard and showcase the character and quality that homebuyers associate with Mulgrave Properties.
“The homes will be set back some distance from Main Street, making an attractive approach into the site, while retaining an open aspect in the street scene. Architectural features, such as artificial stone sills and brick details, have been designed to reflect the character of buildings in the village and ensure The Orchard blends into its surroundings.”
Existing trees will be retained wherever possible with new tree planting along the access road and in some of the back gardens of the homes, the company said.
As part of the planning agreement for The Orchard, Mulgrave Properties is to create a small green open space on the site and also contribute £23,800 towards off-site recreational facilities, including outdoor sports and play areas. Debbie said: “This select collection of homes will give house-hunters the chance to live in the charming village of Bubwith, where there is a thriving local community with a shop, a pub, a primary school and a doctor’s surgery, with a tennis club and sports and leisure centre opposite the development.
“While offering a rural lifestyle, The Orchard is just eight miles from Selby and an eight-minute drive away from Howden railway station, which offers trains to York, Hull and London Kings Cross. Construction work is well under way on the site and we anticipate that we will be in a position to hand over the keys to the first residents in the autumn of 2025.”
