Waddeton Park has received planning approval from Exeter City Council to develop 350-homes at the site of St Bridget Nursery off Old Rydon Lane, Exeter, in a planning meeting last night.
The developer plans to demolish the existing horticultural nursery and provide a range of one-to-four-bedroom homes including 35% affordable homes.
The proposals incorporate 8 acres of accessible public open space.
The 33-acre site is a broadly triangular parcel of land occupied by a range of horticultural and garden centre-related buildings, areas of hard standing, car parking, polytunnels and growing space.
The site is in operational use with storage buildings, growing areas, offices and maintenance buildings currently in use in the eastern portion of the site.
The approved plans also include the provision of 519 parking spaces.
The site falls within the Newcourt area which has been allocated by the council for 3,500 homes and 40 acres of employment land with associated infrastructure.
