Client: Marchfield
Planning, working drawings and contract administration for a 1600ft² three bedroom house close to Whitney Wood.
The highway authority required that cars had to enter North Road only in forward gear so the floor plan and site layout was determined by a vehicle turning area which could achieve this.
Ridge heights were reduced to sympathise with the scale of neighbouring cottages and avoid overshadowing houses and gardens to the rear.
The front entrance leads to a two-storey high hall and landing which adds a feeling of spaciousness to the living accommodation.
Boast Architects obtained competitive tenders for the construction work and carried out site inspections for the client who was resident abroad at the time.
