Avant Homes submits plans to deliver £90m, 396 new home multi-tenure development in Pleasley

Housebuilder Avant Homes Central has submitted plans to deliver a £90m multi-tenure development comprising 396 homes in Pleasley, Mansfield.

Called Stanton Place and located at Pleasley Hill Farm, the proposed 22-acre development will comprise a mix of two-, three- and four-bedroom homes.

The development will feature 15 of Avant Homes’ practically designed, energy efficient house types and of the 396 properties, 40 will be designated for affordable housing.

The site will form part of a mixed-use development of up to 850 dwellings across a wider area, which will also include retail and commercial space.

Avant Homes Central has also committed to community contributions of around £2.1m towards the provision of local services, education and healthcare.

If given the go ahead by Mansfield District Council, work is expected to start on site in January 2026 with the first residents anticipated to move into their new homes in September 2026.

Matt Barker, director in charge at Avant Homes Central, said: “We are very pleased to have submitted our plans to deliver a multi-tenure residential development in Pleasley.

“As a business, our aim is to provide quality new homes for everyone in places where people want to live that will create long-lasting sustainable communities.

“Stanton Place is an excellent example of this and will deliver practically designed, energy efficient homes at a range of price points in order to make them more accessible. We now look forward to Mansfield District considering our plans for the development.”

Avant Homes Central covers South Yorkshire, Derbyshire, North Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire. The region currently has seven live developments ranging from Merlin’s Point at Witham St Hughes to  Bennerley View in Awsworth.

Avant Homes Central is part of the Avant Homes Group, which operates across the Midlands, north of England and Scotland from eight regional operating businesses.

At present, Avant Homes Group employs more than 600 people. The housebuilder’s ambition is to develop its multi-tenure business further across its existing regions and beyond, creating communities as well as providing employment opportunities.
