Set on a generous garden plot with an existing single-storey bungalow, this carefully considered new-build development introduces a high-quality two-storey home. The design considers the orientation and topography of the site, ensuring seamless integration with the existing dwelling and shared access.
Architecturally, the proposal features gable roofs, distinctive gable-end detailing, protruding brickwork, and vertical banding to create a visually engaging yet contextually appropriate exterior. Contemporary elements such as metal porch trims and integrated solar panels enhance both the aesthetic and sustainability credentials of the scheme.
The new dwelling offers dual-aspect accommodation with clearly defined entrances, secure cycle and refuse storage, and a set-back placement to maintain a respectful relationship with the existing bungalow. Brick is proposed as the principal material, complemented by metal cladding to highlight key architectural features.
This development demonstrates a contextual response to its setting, balancing modern design with local character to deliver a sustainable and attractive residential addition to Colden Common.
