A farming field to the north of Arnold could become the site to 116 homes under newly-tabled plans.
Langridge Homes is looking to build the houses on the land which sits between Calverton Road and the A60, Mansfield Road, about 1.4 miles from Arnold town centre.
In August 2019, plans for 148 homes were approved on the site by Gedling Borough Council, but complications with access led to them being shelved.
New plans have now surfaced, with a mix of one to five-bed houses.
The site, known as Lodge Farm in Redhill, is surrounded by other new housing developments.
To the east is the recently completed Davidsons development, while there are homes to the south and west at Arch Hill.
Langridge Homes also owns the agricultural land to the north of the site.
A planning statement said: “The development will be served by two vehicular access points, one from Mansfield Road, accommodating 52 dwellings, and another from Hadston Drive, serving 64 dwellings.
“The site benefits from strong sustainable transport connections, including frequent bus services along Mansfield Road, providing links to Nottingham city centre, Arnold town centre, and other destinations.
“The location offers convenient access to a range of local facilities and services, supporting the creation of a well-connected and sustainable community.”
Langridge Homes said a key feature of the revised plans for the site is the “significant area of public open space, forming a central green corridor along the north-east to south-west axis of the site.”
They add: “Langridge Homes is known for its drive to build great homes and places by creating long-standing communities demonstrating the dedication in creating sustainable developments and a legacy.
“The proposals will create a distinct and unique character to the North Edge of Arnold and move the area towards a sustainable future through an increase in housing stock and tenures.”
