Search the Public Notice PortalPLANS have been unveiled for a new development of around 160 homes in Rayne.
The scheme, proposed by Hopkins Homes, would be built on land north of The Street in Rayne, Braintree.
It would include a mix of high-quality, energy-efficient housing with affordable homes and properties designed for older people.
Plans will be shared with the public at two events in June.
A spokesperson for Hopkins Homes said: "We are bringing forward these early proposals as an opportunity to deliver new homes alongside meaningful green space and improved connections for the village.
"This is still at an early stage in the process, and we are keen to hear from the local community so that their views can help shape the proposals as they develop."
The development would also feature circa 6.7 hectares of open space, including play areas, green corridors, and new and enhanced walking and cycling routes.
There is also a possibility for bus stop improvements and contributions to local services.
The proposed site sits to the north of The Street and west of Capel Road, with access planned from The Street.
The spokesperson said: "Through our commitment to Building for a Healthy Life, we aim to create a diverse range of homes that help foster community cohesion and shape places where people can feel proud to live.
"Our proposals for Rayne deliver on this vision and we look forward to meeting with residents and stakeholders at the community engagement event and receiving constructive feedback on how the development could evolve."
A public consultation event and a drop-in event will take place at Rayne Village Hall on Tuesday, June 9, from 3.30pm to 5.30pm, and Saturday, June 13, from 9am to 12pm.
