We were appointed by Meridian Home Start Limited, the Royal Borough of Greenwich’s Housing Development arm to assist in their commitment to delivering new high-quality homes and sustainable communities, through the development of small plots of land around the Borough which are vacant, under-utilised or problematic.
The site is surrounded by residential housing with the scheme being designed to reinforce the existing street scene along Sandpit Place and Erwood Road.
The Sandpit Place project consisted of the design and build of a residential development providing 32 new houses for Greenwich, 10% of which are wheelchair accessible homes. The houses are arranged as three back-to-back terraces running north to south across the site. The new dwellings have generous amenity space in the form of ground floor front garden, balconies and roof terraces, as well as light and airy open plan living room and kitchen/diner. Elevations were clad in facing brick, in keeping with the brick construction of the surroundings.
