A PROPOSAL to build 60 homes on a busy road between two towns is set to be lodged.

Macbryde Homes has drawn up the plan for a five-acre site on the A525, neighbouring the Brookhouse Mill on the outskirts of Denbigh.

The St Asaph developer’s proposal includes two-, three- and four-bedroom homes that it said would offer chances for first-time buyers, growing families and young professionals to get on the housing ladder.

It said the properties, priced from £149,995, would be “in keeping with the overall character and appearance of the local area”.

Work would begin in spring 2020 under the plan, which will soon be submitted to Denbighshire County Council’s planning committee.

Macbrydge Homes said it believes interest in the homes will be “extremely strong”.

Managing director Gwyn Jones said: “The site that we have acquired in Denbigh is in an excellent location and has many positive factors in its favour. It boasts strong transport links, and Denbigh itself has a wealth of vital amenities including doctors, dentists, shops and several primary and secondary schools. 

"These are all well placed to support both the existing and future local population.

“As a North Wales-based housebuilder, we are aware of the housing need across the region and have a strong track-record of delivering quality developments that meet that local need."
