Mabels Farm, Ilmington

WPDG progress delivery partner procurement for a new farmstead and housing redevelopment in Ilmington

Warwickshire Property and Development Group (WPDG) received detailed planning permission on 1st March 2024 for the replacement and relocation of a farmhouse and barns, with a new access, within a County Council owned farm in Ilmington. The replacement farmstead consent enables progression of the Neighbourhood Plan allocated development site, including the existing farmstead, at Back Lane in Ilmington.

WPDG and its professional team have commenced the procurement process to select and appoint a preferred delivery partner, to bring forward both the consented new farmstead and work up and submit a detailed planning application for the redevelopment site.

This is an opportunity to bring forward a much needed mix of house types and tenures, in this affluent village, which aims to provide a chance for both growing families and downsizers to stay in the area. The scheme will include a 35% affordable housing provision, as well as good quality open space and improved accessibility to the village amenities and adjacent play area and recreation ground.

WPDG is hoping to bring forward a scheme for 27 new dwellings within the allocated site and it will continue to work with Stratford-on-Avon District Council, the Parish Council and local residents, to ensure that the proposed scheme is a good fit for Ilmington.
