Description
The proposed scheme is a sympathetic addition to the surrounding landscape that offers high-quality and sustainable accommodation while also adding to the existing housing stock. This scheme has been designed with privacy as well as the provision of a high-quality family dwelling in mind that complies with local and national policies. With a maximum height of two storeys, the development maintains a low-level appearance, similar to that of the existing outbuilding on the site. By organising the building with an L shape around a private garden, the design ensures maximum privacy to both the neighbours and to the development itself. The site itself is within a 20–25-minute walk to Cheam station and Ewell East Station. Planning permission has now been granted for the erection of a 4-bedroom dwelling house.
Location
The proposed site is located along Holmwood Road, an extended residential road running along the rail line which meets at Holmwood Close, a residential cul- de-sac to which Holmwood Road is the only access. The proposed site is located at the L-shaped curve in the road where these two residential roads meet. The area is primarily residential; therefore, there are low levels of traffic from pedestrians and vehicles. There are a variety of green spaces nearby, including: Sutton Cricket Club; Cheam Cricket Club; Warren Farm, a Woodland Trust site; Cheam Park; and Nonsuch Park. There are also several schools in close proximity, such as the Nuffy Bear Day Nursery, Nonsuch High School for Girls, St Dunstan’s C of E Primary School, Little Oaks Pre School Nursery Forest School, and Cuddington Croft Primary School. Based on access to amenities and transportation in the area, the development is in a prime location for a family dwelling house.
Transport
139 Holmwood Road, Cheam, Surrey SM2 7JS has access to a range of public transport. The local train stations are Cheam Station and Ewell East Station, both of which are located within 20 – 25 minutes’ walk of the site. Additionally, the number 470 bus service is in close proximity, which runs between Epsom Town Centre to Colliers wood, via Ewell East, Sutton and Morden.
