RESIDENTIAL

This exceptional single bespoke dwelling project in Ramsbottom showcases a harmonious interaction in a conservation area location. Skilfully navigating the site’s constraints and incorporating intelligent design solutions, the development successfully achieved full planning permission.

A major challenge was the tree preservation order on the site, which heavily influenced the design. The creative approach respects the existing topography, landscape, and TPO trees, while retaining mature evergreen shrub landscaping around the perimeter to reduce visual impact and blend with the natural environment. Promoting sustainability and addressing the energy crisis, the project utilizes Structural Insulated Panels (SIP) for energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact. The dwelling offers disabled platform lifts for accessibility and features four floor levels that step back into the site. Overlooking and residential amenity concerns are addressed through increased distances from neighbouring properties and patio enclosures.

In conclusion, this extraordinary Ramsbottom dwelling demonstrates a successful combination of innovative design, sustainability, and respect for the natural environment, overcoming challenges to create an outstanding residence that integrates seamlessly within the conservation area.
