The site is currently in North East Lincolnshire Council’s Local Plan as allocated for possible future housing.
If plans are approved, the development would include 65 two-bed, 92 three-bed and 77 four-bed homes. Previous plans for five-bed homes have been scrapped.
The site’s entrance and exit would be just to the west of Humberston Country Club, which would involve removing 34 of the club’s car parking spaces.
The course officially closed when Bannatyne, which runs the club and rented out the course, said it was no longer viable.
At a Humberston Village Council meeting in January, members of the golf club opposed the plans.
According to the Local Democracy Reporting Service, during the pre-application consultation, 44 out of 46 responses were objections.
Loss of the golf course and public amenity were among the concerns listed.
However, the applicant argued the linear park, play areas and open space would create “a far wider health and well-being benefit than the former golf course site, which was a private facility for a limited number of individuals”.
Vistry said in a planning document: “The development will deliver much-needed new homes within a highly accessible location, while enhancing the local environment and contributing positively to the character, functionality and long-term resilience of the area.”
