We secured a great consent this week for a replacement dwelling in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty located in the South Downs National Park. Our Client was brave enough to allow us to challenge advice they had received to take a cautious approach with their proposals. They put their trust in us and followed our advice to be bold. It has certainly paid off! It now allows them to demolish the existing 4 bedroom 189m² (2034ft²) chalet bungalow and replace it with a full 2 storey, 5 bedroom 317m² (3412ft²) luxury dwelling. The consent secures a raise in ridge height of 1.8m previously advised by others to be a waste of time in pursuing. It’s another example of challenging perceptions of others, embracing a design led approach in order to capture the best home possible.
