Gleeson Land achieved a planning approval via committee, for up to 140 homes on land adjacent to the built-up area of Templecombe.
The proposal includes new vehicular access, public open space, landscaping, surface water attenuation, and supporting infrastructure. Well-connected to local amenities via Bowden Road and Coombe Hill, the site offers strong pedestrian and cycle links.
The development represents a sustainable and integrated extension to the village, responding sensitively to local character and planning constraints. It will deliver a mix of market and affordable housing to meet identified local demand, including options for starter homes and families.
The design process was shaped through consultation with the Local Planning Authority, Parish Council, and the community.
The site was successfully sold to Vistry Group in June 2025.
