Quinn Estates proposes a transformative development at Sutton Green, Woking, aiming to create a vibrant, landscape-led community extension.
The plan includes up to 650 homes, with 50 per cent designated as affordable housing, addressing the urgent housing demand in the area. Additionally, a 70-bedroom care home will cater to the needs of the older population.
The development will feature a local centre with amenities such as a nursery, community space, café, shop, and gym, enhancing the community’s social and recreational infrastructure.
A significant component of the proposal is the creation of a large Country Park, serving as a Suitable Alternative Natural Green Space (SANG), which will provide a buffer to the development and diverse habitats, while reducing pressure on nearby sensitive areas. This park will be a key feature, offering extensive green spaces accessible to all residents.
The development is strategically located to promote sustainable living, with an integrated transport system prioritising walking, cycling, and public transport. This approach aims to minimise car dependency and enhance accessibility within the area. The proposal also emphasises creating a unique landscape, integrating green spaces, and ensuring a net gain in biodiversity.
Quinn Estates, known for its expertise in golf course redevelopment, has designed this project to align with national planning policies, ensuring it is not inappropriate for the Green Belt. The development promises significant societal benefits, including meeting housing needs, providing jobs, and enhancing the natural environment.
The proposal is supported by extensive technical work and engagement, demonstrating a considered response to the site’s constraints and opportunities.
Overall, the vision is to create a sustainable, innovative community that embodies 21st-century living, offering beautifully designed homes and a high-quality living environment that respects its landscape setting.
