ilke Homes said that the proposed scheme, which is subject to planning consent, will become the firm’s flagship site. The scheme will deliver 505 houses together with 117 apartments.
The firm plans to manufacture all the houses along production lines at its factory in Knaresborough, North Yorkshire.
ilke Homes development executive director Tom Heathcote said: “The site is steeped in rich heritage and has been a central part of Boots’ success story over the last few decades, so we are incredibly excited for the opportunity to work alongside Boots, HTA Design, and the local stakeholders at both Broxtowe Borough and Nottingham City Councils to truly transform this redundant industrial space into a well-designed new community and provide better homes in a better way.”
Blackstar Advisory CEO Tim Garratt said: “This is probably one of the most important and strategically significant residential land deals in a generation for Nottingham.”
