Our vision for new homes on Humber Doucy Lane

Hopkins Homes and Barratt David Wilson Homes are delighted to share our updated plans for new homes on land east of Humber Doucy Lane.

The site has recently been purchased by Hopkins Homes and Barratt David Wilson Homes and is allocated for residential development in Ipswich and East Suffolk’s Local Plans.

Following our public consultation at the end of 2023, we have reviewed the feedback received and are working towards finalising our proposals for new homes on the site.

We are now pleased to be able to share updated plans to deliver high quality homes, new community facilities and infrastructure improvements.

To share our updated proposals for the site, we held a public exhibition event on Thursday 15th February.

You can find the exhibition boards from the event at the link below.

The Site

Land East of Humber Doucy Lane

Land East of Humber Doucy Lane falls within the boundaries of Ipswich Borough Council and East Suffolk Council. 70% of the site lays in Ipswich Borough and the remaining 30% is in East Suffolk.

The site is allocated for development in the 2022 Ipswich Core Strategy and the 2020 Suffolk Coastal Local Plan. Both the Ipswich and East Suffolk Site Allocation policies refer to the development coming forward as a single, Masterplanned site. Providing high quality new homes on the site will help to meet the identified housing need in both Ipswich and East Suffolk.
Our Proposals

The land east of Humber Doucy Lane has been allocated in the adopted Local Plans for around 600 new homes and our proposals are to bring forward a high quality housing development on the site. Our proposals include:

Approx. 600 high quality new homes to meet local need

c.30% allocation of affordable homes

400sqm of new non- residential facilities and land for an early year’s facility

An inclusive development with a mix of tenures for families of all sizes
