Plans to build three new homes in the centre of Kenilworth, on a site where five houses once stood, have been put forward to Warwick District Council.
The scheme for 'Railing Row' on Warwick Road would see one detached and two semi-detached homes built, each with two bedrooms.
A previous application to build five dwellings on the plot of land was withdrawn last summer.
But this latest scheme says it is in keeping with the site and the nearby St John's conservation area.
"Whilst a full re-development of 'Railing Row' may no longer be appropriate to the modern character of Kenilworth, the proposal to build three houses in a designated residential area is," the application said.

It added: "The existing area was a site of five houses, referred to as 'Railing Row'.
"These were demolished in the late 70s with the intention of re-building, however, were never completed at the time.
"The land is currently used as personal storage, notably cars for the current occupants of 200 Warwick Road."
Plans state the houses would be "suitably landscaped" with new gardens.
It also says nothing will be done to change the access to the site.
