National housebuilder Redrow has snapped up a site in Birmingham suburb Harborne, which has planning permission for more than 60 homes.

The sale of the 11.5-acre former playing field off Knightlow Road was led by GVA's land and development team.

The land has been unused for more than a decade and Redrow will now construct 63 homes and public open space. The scheme will also fund improvements to the pitches and changing rooms at Senneleys Park.

Danny Cheal, of Redrow Homes, said: "We’re naturally exceedingly pleased that we have been able to secure this consent and have completed the acquisition of what will become a key part of the local community.

"With GVA’s assistance we have been able to ensure that we are delivering a development of high quality homes that are in keeping with the local area in terms of density and delivery while ensuring that there are sufficient homes to meet demand in one of Birmingham’s most desirable suburbs."
