Following outline planning consent for 4 no. self/custom build houses, CDS were commissioned to provide the detailed site & house type drawings for the Reserved Matters planning application.

​

The site is located centrally within the settlement of Rangeworthy, with the surrounding area rural in character. It was formerly used as a paddock & is enclosed on all sides by established hedgerows with mature trees along the southern boundary. A pond is situated in the south western corner & existing features have been retained within the proposals where possible.

​

Proposals have been designed to respond positively to the character of the local area & ensure a high quality sustainable scheme is achieved. The 4 no. 4 bedroom, dwellings front out onto Wotton Road & provide a linear form of development, set back from the highway within generous sized plots to reflect the existing settlement pattern.

The bespoke house types are a maximum of 2 storey & feature integral garages designed in a contemporary architectural style. As self/ custom build they are designed to provide 3no design options for the internal arrangements & a degree of external customisation with a selection of material finishes, utilising natural stone & cladding under a grey roof. The design options provide perspective homeowners with suggested internal arrangements but allow scope for greater flexibility & a wider range of layout configurations, options for various window sizes & locations are also available. External customisation is more limited to ensure an acceptable material palette.

​

Homes will provide excellent energy efficiency with a range of measures including air source heat pumps for heating, cooling & hot water, as well as options for the amount of PV solar panels to be installed.
