Construction has commenced on a 50-home residential development in Stanton-under-Bardon, Leicestershire. The scheme, called St Mary’s Chase, represents the first project under Allison Homes’ newly launched East Midlands division.
The development will include a mix of two, three, and four-bedroom houses, eight of which are designated as affordable housing. It will feature established house designs and new models added to the developer’s range.
Outline planning permission was granted in June 2024, with full approval in February 2025. A show home is expected by autumn 2025, and full build completion is targeted for December 2026.
As part of the development, the site will include green space, a children’s play area, and new tree planting aligned with the nearby National Forest. Public footpaths running through the land will be preserved.
Through a Section 106 agreement, Allison Homes will contribute £600,000 to local infrastructure and services, including education, healthcare, recreation, and public transport. The investment underscores the development’s aim to integrate with and support the surrounding community while delivering new housing stock to the region.
