The redevelopment of this green belt site offers opportunities for the existing tired and fragmented building complex to be removed and replaced with a high-quality, residential accommodation in a very sustainable location that provides contemporary living conditions and lifestyle for a large family. The proposal includes a new 5-bedroom dwelling house with the associated landscaping, with a much more compact footprint and building mass than the existing one, which helps to increase the openness of the greenbelt.

The proposed dwelling lies on three stories, one of which is located below the natural ground level. The building’s long central axis is oriented in a South-North direction therefore the main living spaces predominantly face West, South-West. This provides not just maximised explosion to direct sunlight during the day but also a great outlook of the woodland adjacent to the site’s Northern and Western boundaries.
