Plans have been submitted outlining details of the next phase of the Buckler’s Park development in Crowthorne.
The latest stage outlines proposals for a total of 63 new homes, dubbed ‘Phase 4B’, at the site off Old Wokingham Road.
First approved in January 2015, the wider scheme has outlined planning permission for up to 1,000 new homes on the 102-hectare site, alongside amenities including a retail unit, primary school with associated playing fields, care home, parking, on-site storage and a country park.
In addition to these, there are also designs for new road, bus and cycle networks.
Developers CALA Homes are proposing the new dwellings to consist of four five-bedroom, 14 four-bedroom, 23 three-bedroom and 14 two-bedroom houses.

In addition, there will also be eight two-bedroom coach houses alongside a block of flats containing one and two-bedroom apartments.
The development mix will provide 10 per cent affordable housing units, according to the plans.
A total of 170 car park spaces, made up of 122 allocated spaces, 10 in car ports, 22 garages and 16 visitor spaces, will be provided throughout the site.
The site forms part of the former Transport Research Laboratory land – previously used for vehicle testing, research and development – which was previously earmarked for redevelopment.
As part of the new housing development, the routes of some of the old testing tracks have also been integrated as pedestrian links within the adjacent Buckler’s Forest.
