Exciting News: Planning Permission Granted for 63 New Homes at Stanton Cross, Wellingborough

Grace Homes is delighted to announce that planning permission has been granted for 63 new homes at Stanton Cross, Wellingborough — a landmark step in our mission to deliver high-quality, sustainable homes across Northamptonshire.

The site for this development, Grange Farm (also known as Irthlingborough Grange), carries a rich local history. Dating back to the late 18th/early 19th century, the farmhouse was built of local limestone with sandstone dressings and long stood as a substantial agricultural property. Though altered over time, it remains a notable asset, reflecting the rural character of Northamptonshire and its farming legacy.

Set within two acres, Grange Farm has transitioned from historic farmland into a setting for modern residential living, where the character of traditional buildings is carefully balanced with the opportunities of new growth in Irthlingborough and Wellingborough.

Stanton Cross is Wellingborough’s flagship Sustainable Urban Extension (SUE) — a master-planned scheme designed to deliver much more than just homes. As part of the wider vision, the community will benefit from:

• Exceptional transport links, including direct rail connections to London and easy access to key road networks.
• New schools, shops, and healthcare facilities.
• Green spaces, play areas, and cycle routes to promote healthy, active living.
• Employment and business opportunities to boost the local economy.

At Grace Homes, we are proud to deliver homes with an EPC Rating A, ensuring outstanding energy efficiency, lower running costs, and more sustainable lifestyles.

The 63 new homes at Grange Farm will:

• Provide a carefully designed mix of 1, 2, 3, and 4 bedroom homes, finished in a combination of brick and render to complement the local character.
• Feature modern eco-technology such as air source heat pumps, photovoltaic solar panels, and EV charging.
• Offer high-quality design and specification.
• Support the local economy through job creation and collaboration with local businesses.

This development is about more than housing — it embodies our commitment to sustainable growth; building a future-ready community in the heart of Wellingborough.
