Sitwell Acres by Avant Homes · Hillmoor Street, Pleasley, Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, NG19 7RY

Sitwell Acres is a forthcoming new build homes development by Avant Homes, located off Hillmoor Street, Pleasley, Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, NG19 7RY. Part of a substantial local regeneration scheme (referred to in planning as Stanton Place), the full Avant Homes phase is set to deliver a total of 396 new, multi-tenure properties, including 40 designated as affordable housing. The development has an estimated Gross Development Value (GDV) of £90 million, underscoring its scale and commitment to the area.

Avant Homes is investing circa £2.1 million in community contributions toward local services, education, and healthcare provision. Sitwell Acres will offer a wide mix of properties tailored for various buyers, featuring 15 of Avant Homes’ signature house types. The planned mix includes 79 one-bedroom, 130 two-bedroom, 157 three-bedroom, and 31 four-bedroom homes. Each property is being designed with modern, open-plan living in mind. Standard specifications are expected to include kitchens with integrated appliances, full-height fashion-tiling in bathrooms, spacious rooms, and classic French doors leading to the garden space. Specific house names and their respective floor plans can be requested directly from the developer’s sales team. Situated less than three miles from Mansfield town centre, Sitwell Acres offers practical connectivity to major regional hubs. Road links are excellent, with the A617 accessible in minutes, connecting residents to Chesterfield and Mansfield quickly. The M1 motorway junction is approximately a 15-minute drive, allowing efficient commuting north to Sheffield and Leeds, or south towards Nottingham and Derby. Public transport options include Mansfield Train Station, a roughly 10-minute drive away, which offers hourly rail services on the Robin Hood Line between Nottingham and Worksop. Furthermore, direct bus services operated by Stagecoach East Midlands run from Pit Lane, Pleasley, reaching Nottingham’s Victoria Bus Station in approximately 1 hour and 6 minutes, with services running every 30 minutes. Local amenities are well-established. Primary education is available at Farmilo Primary School and Nursery, located within 350 yards of the development. Secondary options include All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy (1.4 miles) and Queen Elizabeth's Academy (under 10 minutes by car). For healthcare, Bull Farm Branch of Oakwood Surgery is the closest GP at 0.8 miles, with Mansfield Community Hospital situated 2.1 miles away. Local leisure amenities in Pleasley include the traditional pubs The White Swan on Meden Square and the Nags Head on Chesterfield Road North. The site itself forms part of a larger mixed-use masterplan that will eventually include retail/commercial units, public open space, and a multi-use games area, all set against a backdrop featuring views of the historic Pleasley Pit headstocks (a Scheduled Ancient Monument). Sitwell Acres is currently designated as 'Coming Soon'. Construction is anticipated to commence in January 2026, with the first resident handovers projected for September 2026. While the development will offer homes at a range of price points, current specific price lists are to be confirmed. Prospective buyers are advised to contact the developer directly for a pre-release price list and house type availability. Avant Homes has a mixed but notable track record, often receiving praise for modern design and high-specification interiors, though reviews frequently cite challenges related to post-completion snagging and customer service responsiveness. Buyers should undertake standard due diligence regarding the developer's reputation.
