Challenge
Our client, a savvy property investor, identified a plot with potential for developing new build flats to maximise ROI. They envisioned building six flats on the land, a concept that required meticulous planning to gain council approval and resolve parking issues typical for new apartment developments in London.
Approach
We needed to ensure the design not only met the client's ambitious goals but also adhered to planning authority requirements regarding layout, density, visual appearance, and finishing materials. We explored various space configurations to optimise the design and address all essential components for approval. After thorough consideration, we finalised a design concept that included two 3-bedroom flats, one 2-bedroom flat, and four 1-bedroom flats.
Solution
By challenging conventional approaches, we enabled our client to maximise the use of underutilised land and secure planning permission for the new build flats. This project not only optimised the site's potential but also turned our client into a successful property entrepreneur with a profitable investment.
