October 2011

ES81 has recently received planning approval following the submission of plans to the Local Authority on behalf of our clients for a new family dwelling. The internal layout has been devised to work with our clients family oriented lifestyle. Fundamentally, it allows for a more open-plan living environment in which to supervise and oversee the activities of young children. Indeed, it also permits more space should guests wish to stay and offers more privacy from circulation areas / common spaces associated with the requirements and needs of a young family and their guests.

Due to the topography of the site, we have embraced the ideas established in a previously approved scheme. However, some changes have been made to offer improvements to benefit overall comfort and use. The proposal is designed to achieve Code for Sustainable Homes Level 3 by introducing sustainable measures in line with government guidance.
