Beeston Aspinall (BA) Architects is seeking permission in principle from Cheshire West and Chester Council for a residential development in High Street, Norley.
According to the application's design and access statement, the dwellings would comprise a mix of four-bedroom houses and two-bedroom affordable homes.
In a planning statement, BA Architects describes the application site as having been 'unmanaged and vacant' for a number of years.
It adds: "The proposed development represents an opportunity to deliver a modest number of new homes in a location that can accommodate growth without harming the character or setting of the village.
"The site comprises an area of unused land on the edge of the built-up area of Norley with direct access from High Street.
"It adjoins existing residential properties and is well-related to the settlement pattern of the village.
"Importantly, it is located within walking distance of a range of local facilities and services, including the primary school, shop, public house, and community buildings, with public transport connections also available.
"Norley is identified as a sustainable rural settlement where carefully managed, small-scale growth is encouraged.
"The land is enclosed by hedgerows, fencing and surrounding residential development, which restrict views into the site and give it a contained and inward-looking character.
"There is no public right of way or public access across the land, and it does not serve any recreational, community, or agricultural purpose."
The design and access statement also adds the applicants are looking to solar and grey water recycling into the scheme.
It says: "Our aim is for the dwellings to become very energy efficient with goals to reach a carbon neutral design.
"The high specification design will help reduce the overall energy consumption of the dwelling."
Should the PiP application be approved, further details on layout, access, design, and drainage, will be address in a subsequent proposal.
