Jones Homes has acquired a 37-acre site in Warmingham Lane, Middlewich, where it has begun building 235 new homes and will create green open spaces.
The Cheshire-based housebuilder will also contribute more than £1.2 million towards the planned Middlewich Eastern Relief Road.
The development, to be known as Warmingham Park, will include one to five-bedroom houses, bungalows and apartments.
Around half of the site will become landscaped open space, featuring a children’s play area, new wildlife habitats and a community orchard.
Carol Barlow, Sales and Marketing Director for Jones Homes North West, said:
“Warmingham Park will create an attractive new neighbourhood on the edge of Middlewich. Our design team has worked to create a balance between the residential areas and nature spaces which will be open to the wider community.
“Homes will range from one-bedroom apartments to five-bedroom detached houses with a variety of options in between, including four bungalows. This will address the need for more homes of all types in Middlewich.
“Jones Homes is well known in Cheshire for building high-quality new homes with character. At Warmington Park, we have adapted our range of house types to reflect the local architecture. They will also be energy efficient, with low-carbon features such as air source heat pumps and electric vehicle charging points.
“We look forward to starting work and seeing the new neighbourhood taking shape.”
The contribution towards the relief road will be reallocated towards education or affordable housing if the road does not progress. Jones Homes is also providing 24 affordable homes for people with a connection to the local area as part of its planning agreement.
Outline planning consent for the development was granted in 2019 and a reserved matters application showing the detailed layout was approved in December 2024.
