Overview

Description

Location

The New Lubbesthorpe master plan shows the development over the next 15 years of approximately 4,250 homes, local and district centres, schools, health centre, community space and a business centre creating a new community to the west of the M1 motorway.

Development commenced on site in 2016 and to date £65m of infrastructure including a bridge over the M1 has been completed. The Brook Centre 1 is near to the primary school which opened in September 2019. New houses near The Brook Centre are being delivered by Barratt Homes, David Wilson Homes and Davidsons Homes.

In addition to the proposal, the 3.4-acre local centre will incorporate a care home which is currently under construction with opening scheduled for May 2025. The Brook Centre will provide Forest Medical Group to the upper floor, a convenience food store (pre-let to Sainsburys Stores Ltd) on the ground floor, with opportunity for expressions of interest from occupiers for up to 500 sq m.

The quality of the development and delivery means Charterpoint and the lead developers, The Drummond Trust, are looking for a high-quality development with occupiers of standing to create an attractive Local Centre environment for the adjoining new community.

As such, it is envisaged that the pub/bistro facility will be an open all-day establishment providing more of a café/bistro style operation offering facilities to local communities from morning, through lunch times into early evening with a food and social hub bias.

It is envisaged that the retail/leisure scheme to be delivered will incorporate high quality users suited to such a Centre environment taking into account the high-quality convenience store. Enquiries from occupiers providing complimentary ancillary health uses such as a pharmacy will be positively considered.

New Lubbesthorpe lies between Leicester Forest East and Enderby.

Within the area there are supermarkets, a David Lloyd health and leisure club, Enderby leisure and golf centre, a post office, pharmacy and other local shops

It is also within a couple of miles of the Vue Cinema and Fosse Retail Park, which offers lots of shops and eateries.
