Delivering new
homes for Bourne

• Up to 270 high-quality new homes
  A mix of one to five bedroom properties for first-time buyers, families and those looking to downsize.
• Affordable housing
  30% of the new homes will be designated as affordable, offering a mix of affordable rent, shared ownership and first homes – ensuring local residents, including first-time buyers and families, have access to high-quality homes.
• Biodiversity net gain
  Our plans will deliver a minimum 10% biodiversity net gain. This will be achieved by creating vibrant green spaces, establishing wildlife corridors and planting native species – helping to enhance local habitats and support Bourne’s natural environment.
• Sustainable transport
  Safe walking and cycling routes, improving connectivity into Bourne town centre. We are also exploring ways to improve local transport links, including bus routes.

Our proposals aim to deliver a diverse range of new homes. This development will provide much-needed housing for the District, ensuring a variety of property types are available to suit the needs of local people at different stages of life.

We are committed to creating a thriving, inclusive community by offering:

• One and two-bedroom homes
  Ideal for first-time buyers and young professionals taking their first steps onto the property ladder, or for those wishing to downsize.
• Family homes
  Designed to meet the needs of growing households, offering modern, spacious living close to schools, parks and a thriving town centre, these properties will boast three, four and five-bedrooms
• Downsizing options
  Providing comfortable, manageable homes for older residents looking to stay in Bourne while moving to a property better suited to their lifestyle.
• Accessible homes
  At least 10% of all new homes will be designed to be ‘accessible and adaptable’ in line with Building Regulations Part M4(2). These dwellings will benefit from step-free access and wide entrances.
• Affordable housing
  30% of the homes will be affordable, including affordable rent, shared ownership and First Homes. This will ensure local people – from first-time buyers to families – can access high-quality housing.

Vehicular access to the site will be taken from West Road (A151), along the northern edge of the site. The new access will include a right-turn lane to help traffic flow safely and will be designed to allow for future bus services to enter the site.

New bus stops could also be added on either side of West Road, close to the site entrance. A reduction in the speed limit along this section of West Road to 40mph is also proposed.

A new 3-metre-wide shared footpath and cycleway will lead out of the site to a new crossing point and will connect with the existing pavement on the north side of West Road.
