Beal Homes has submitted a planning application for a £120 million residential development in Hull, aiming to deliver over 400 new homes. The proposed site spans 38 acres in Sutton-on-Hull, an area earmarked for residential development in the Hull Local Plan.
The development aligns with the Government’s national housing targets, which include the construction of 1.5 million new homes during the current Parliament. In response, Hull City Council has outlined its own Housing Growth Strategy, aiming to add nearly 6,000 new homes by 2031.
The Beal project, which includes up to 418 homes, is designed to blend urban living with natural surroundings. It includes green spaces and a green corridor, providing walking routes and creating a buffer between the development and existing homes. To improve access and ease local traffic congestion, the plans propose two new access points and an extension to the local bus route.
This development addresses the rising demand for high-quality homes in Hull, particularly in Sutton, which has seen limited new housing in recent years. Beal’s plans feature a variety of house types, from starter homes to larger properties, aiming to meet diverse housing needs in the area.
