Plans to build more than 80 new market sale and affordable homes on the site of the former magistrates’ court in Sale have been given the go ahead by Trafford Council.
The Council’s planning committee last night approved the application to build 84 properties, including 21 affordable homes, on the one-hectare site off Ashton Lane and Washway Road.
The development will include a new public realm and the planting of new trees, both bringing social, economic and environmental benefits to a superb urban setting with excellent transport links.
The scheme will deliver accommodation providing additional ground floor living space for future residents, creating much-needed new, high quality energy efficient homes in the borough.
The plans for the homes include the addition of solar panels to both front and rear elevations with battery storage to reduce future energy bills for residents with the use of renewable energy.
