The site has planning consent for the two homes, which is due to expire shortly, so immediate action is required to allow construction work to commence in early August.
Knowing the value Dwell’s team can add to their projects, an immediate review of the consent, site history and approved drawings was commissioned resulting in suggested improvements. By rationalising the plan layouts to increase natural daylight and simplify the build process, savings of both time and money are anticipated. Through negotiation with the planners, it is hoped to improve the external appearance of the units, in turn helping to increase the end values of the homes.
Work is underway to fast-track the construction drawings ready for Building Control approval from one of Dwell’s consultant BCOs.
