High quality new homes

Up to 100 new, thoughtfully designed homes are planned, including 40% affordable housing, delivering homes in a range of sizes to suit different households. The majority of the homes will be three or four bed family sized homes, helping the next generation in Linton to put down roots and own their first home.
The new homes will centre sustainability throughout the design by being energy efficient and incorporating sustainable drainage, creating a resilient, low-impact community designed for the future.

Green space for everyone

Almost 50% of the land on site will remain green and become public open space, with places to walk, play and relax.
Tree planting, wildflower beds and new habitats will create a biodiverse, green space that benefits both people and wildlife. The development is designed to achieve more than 10% biodiversity net gain.
Children’s play areas will be incorporated into the landscape, with places to play along the way to encourage active lifestyles and closeness to nature.

Indicative image

A landscape-led, respectful design

The scheme will create a soft, green edge to the village, using new tree planting, hedgerow enhancement and open spaces to blend the development into its surroundings. This approach preserves views from the countryside and complements the character of Linton’s eastern edge.

Connectivity

The development will also be connected to the village with new walking routes, in addition to existing ones. A new footpath will link Horseheath Road to local rights of way and towards Bartlow Road. Additionally, the new public green spaces and play areas will be open to everyone to enjoy.
The development will incorporate traffic calming measures to make the roads safer for everyone, extending the 30mph zone east of the village to create a safer environment for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists alike.
