The firm hopes to deliver the new properties on a plot of land to the west of Ashington CE Primary School, accessed off Church Lane.
The proposals include 117 new homes for private sale and 63 affordable properties available for local people through low-cost rent or shared ownership, with a mix of one and two-bedroom apartments and two, three, four and five-bedroom houses.
The project would also include allotments, a sports pavilion, two sports pitches – an artificial turf Multi-Use Games Area and a natural turf pitch – and retained woodland.

Daniel Bradbury, Managing Director of Bellway South London, said: "This site is allocated for housing in the Ashington Neighbourhood Plan and would deliver 180 much-needed new homes to the area. We have been engaging with Horsham District Council and Ashington Parish Council to try to produce a plan that would help meet the specific needs of the local housing market.
"This development will provide a wide range of housing for a variety of purchasers including first-time buyers, growing families and people downsizing after retirement. More than a third of the properties being delivered on the development will be affordable homes to allow local people who can’t afford to buy their own home secure a new property close to their support network of family and friends."
As part of the development, Bellway South London would contribute around £2.25 million in Community Infrastructure Levy to improve local services and facilities, with around a quarter of this allocated to Ashington Parish Council.
