Anwyl to buy land for 200 Sandbach homes

Muller Property Group has reached a deal with the North Wales-based developer for the sale of a 20-acre plot of land south of the Cheshire town.

Anwyl Homes has lodged a fresh planning application for the Sandbach scheme, located off Old Mill Road, seeking permission for 203 homes.

Of these, 61 will be designated as affordable. The housing mix features one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom houses and apartments.

Improvements to local infrastructure are also proposed including a new arm to the roundabout adjoining Old Mill Road and the A534, near Waitrose, to improve traffic flow in the area.

Alex Wigfield, land director for Anwyl Homes Cheshire and North Wales, said: “Our high-quality designs will bring much-needed new homes to Sandbach to meet strong demand.

“This is both a sustainable and desirable location for new homes, within walking distance of Sandbach town centre.”

He added: “As part of the planning application, we are proposing to improve a roundabout layout to help alleviate traffic congestion on a busy route, for the benefit of the wider community.”

Turley is advising on planning and APD is leading on design.

Muller Property Group secured outline permission for the redevelopment of the site in 2017.

Colin Muller, owner and founder of Muller Property Group, said: “Muller Property Group achieved yet another excellent planning consent, and to have Anwyl as our development partner is a significant step forward in addressing the local housing demand in Cheshire East.

“Working with the Anwyl team has been a further positive experience in our continued relationship.”
