Tisbury Community Homes is bringing forward outline proposals for a mixed use development of new family homes and Care Home at the former Station Works site in Tisbury. 

The proposals would replace an existing outdated employment site with a high-quality and attractive development meeting the needs of the Tisbury community and reflecting the character of the town.

The proposals include:

 
  • A modern 70 bed care home providing a safe and secure home for older people within the village and providing approximately 120 jobs for local people in a range of roles. 
 
  • 86 new high-quality dwellings, providing homes for all ages ranging from 1 and 2 bedroom flats up to 4 bedroom family homes and 3 and 2 bedroom homes for smaller families, downsizers and professionals. 
    • 12x 1 & 2 bedroom flats
    • 42x 2 bedroom houses
    • 29x 3 bedroom houses
    • 3x 4 bedroom houses
 
  • The proposal provides 86% of properties as houses and 14% as flats which reflects the local need for houses rather than flats as identified in The Swindon and Wiltshire Strategic Housing Market Assessment 2017.
 
  • Generous private gardens as well as a new area of public open space for recreational and community use with views over the village 
 
  • Safe and dedicated vehicle access with separate pedestrian and cycle access from Jobbers Lane
 
  • Parking spaces provided for all dwellings and for the care home.
 
  • New and improved pedestrian and cycle routes to the village and improving access to the station
 
  • Access links to the local footpath network and countryside, a nature pond at the eastern end of the site, and specially designed lighting to avoid impact on foraging bats. No development on the grass bank to preserve this as a habitat for reptiles and other wildlife.
 
  • Land along the western boundary set aside for the potential future dualling of railway tracks or other improvements to the station.
