Bellway Strategic Land has submitted outline plans for around 120 homes on a 16-acre site west of Ripon Road in Killinghall, North Yorkshire.
The proposals, which will be considered by North Yorkshire Council, follow public consultation earlier this year.
Alex Bowling, Bellway Strategic Land Manager for the North, said: "Our plans for this site would provide around 120 high-quality new homes for the area, including 40 per cent affordable housing for local people, in a location where new homes are desperately needed.
"The project would also bring a range of other benefits, creating nearly six acres of new public open space for both new and existing residents to use.
"This is a really sustainable location, as people living here would be able to walk into the village centre or take the bus to Harrogate or Ripon.
"We’re planning to upgrade the footpath along Ripon Road and provide a new zebra crossing, as well as linking to existing public rights of way and improving the bus stop next to the site to support the use of public transport.
"We have carried out extensive consultation on the plans, including with the local community in October, and have taken their feedback on board in the design of the project.
"We’re therefore hoping this outline application will be approved so we can move forward to the next stage of the planning process."
If approved, the scheme would also generate investment in the community through the Community Infrastructure Levy and developer contributions.
It is also expected to create jobs in construction and support businesses in the area.
The proposed layout is designed to reflect its location in the village, with vehicle access from Ripon Road and footpaths across the site linking to Maltkiln Lane and Cautley Drive.
The site plan includes a large public open space to the north, which would serve as a biodiversity area.
It would feature wildlife-friendly planting and a pond for natural surface water management.

Bellway said the scheme aims for a biodiversity net gain of at least 10 per cent through the retention of extensive hedgerows and trees and creation of new wildlife habitats.
The application is for outline planning permission.
Detailed plans would be submitted at a later stage subject to planning permission.
