A PLAN which could see nine new homes built in one of the UK's most desirable villages has been revealed.
Apple Tree Walk Developments Limited has proposed to build up to nine homes in Ombersley.
If the plans go ahead, the homes will be on Apple Tree Walk which borders Holt Fleet Road, which is one of the main roads through the village.
The developer still needs to submit a planning application but instead aims to work with residents to refine its proposal before submitting it.
The nine homes will have one affordable first home and will comprise a mixture of two, three and four-bedroom homes.
The plans will introduce a public open space, carports and landscaping to the currently vacant field on Apple Tree Walk.
A spokesperson for Apple Tree Walk Developments Limited said: "We invite you to share your views on the proposed development at Apple Tree Walk, by Apple Tree Walk Developments Limited, in collaboration with EGM Homes LTD and Veya Homes LTD.
"We welcome any input from the village in the design phase of the project."
The public area or park will consist of low post and rail fences with a combination of Portuguese laurel and Yew hedging.
A spokesperson for the developers added: "We feel the development in Ombersley would suit this look when dividing the amenity areas to ensure sensitivity to the conservation area.
"With regards to the planting of the shared areas, we would like to use native species and wildflower meadows.
"The wild meadow will help encourage an array of species whilst offering a tranquil place to reflect."
The properties' windows will be made from black aluminium crittall-style, which is hoped to complement the black and white-coloured traditional properties in the village.
The development will also seek to encourage the use of locally sourced oak-framed elements for porches, carports, and garages.
The inside of the home will carry a traditional interior.
Residents can have their say on the Boughton Butler website.
Ombersley has won a slew of accolades being named one of the most desirable villages in the Muddy Stiletto awards and was named one of the poshest places to live by The Telegraph.
