The new two-storey properties will feature clay tiled roofs, window bays and decorative tile hanging, while there will be 41 new trees are proposed around the site.
Plans state that the homes will be able to incorporate insulated roofs, walls and floors, double glazed windows, air source heat pumps, solar panels and electric vehicle charging points.
