A recovered appeal has resulted in approval for a major development at the Epilepsy Society site on Chesham Lane, Chalfont St Peter, Buckinghamshire. The decision, published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government on 29 June 2026, allows for the construction of up to 975 homes, including affordable housing, and up to 75 care accommodation beds.
The approved plans also include provision for a new primary school, local retail and employment spaces, reprovision of sports pitches, landscaping, car parking, and associated works. The development falls under Use Classes C2, C3, and E.
Letting agents and inventory clerks operating in Buckinghamshire should note the scale of this upcoming development, which is likely to impact local housing supply and demand, as well as the need for property management and inventory services in the area.
