Housebuilder submits plans to deliver 133-home development in Rainworth

Housebuilder Honey has submitted plans and exchanged contracts on a 12.4-acre site to deliver a £40m, 133 new-home development in Rainworth, near Mansfeld.

Called Melisse and located on off Nightjar Way, the proposed development will comprise a mix of two-, three-, four- and five-bed homes and feature 17 of Honey’s different house types.

The proposed development has been allocated within Newark & Sherwood District Council’s existing local plan to deliver new homes across the region.

If approved by Newark & Sherwood District Council, work at Melisse is expected to start in spring 2026 and the first residents are anticipated to move into their new homes in late 2026.

Honey chief executive officer, Mark Mitchell, said: “We are very pleased to have submitted plans for our Rainworth site, which will further expand our development footprint across the Mansfield and Nottinghamshire region.

“Our Melisse development will provide prospective buyers in the local area with high specification, thoughtfully designed homes that are unmatched at their price point.

“We now look forward to Newark & Sherwood District Council considering our proposed plans to deliver homes which combined style, substance and sustainability in Rainworth.”
