Demolition of Original Property and Built Two New Homes
“I just wanted to say a BIG thank you to everyone who has worked to complete the build of our new home. From the beginning of the project with designs and negotiating planning approvals, initial site meetings to the completion, the whole team has been very professional, friendly and taken pride in their work which is reflected in our truly amazing new house. Thank you so much!”
About this Project
The original property on this land was in very poor condition and had many issues. It was becoming unsafe to live in and the cost of fixing these problems was becoming expensive. There was also a large, corner plot of garden which was difficult to maintain. The couple who owned the home wanted a modern, renovated home which would be future proofed and see them into old age. As they loved the position and location of the property, they didn’t want to move.
The Process
James advised that the plot had potential for two homes. This really interested the couple, and plans were made to put this idea into place. James navigated the difficult task of planning and successfully gained planning permission for two houses on this plot of land. Through our homes division of Roberts Miller Redshaw, we purchased half of the land in order to free up capital for the couple.
We proceeded and demolished the original property. Progression was quick and we built the two houses successfully. One for the couple, to their exact specifications, capturing all their needs with a smaller, easy to manage garden. Despite splitting the land into two, the couple still had a beautiful modern home with a spacious garden.
Results of the Project
The second home that we built to the same high standard, on the land we purchased from the couple was sold within eight weeks in a difficult market. This is a testament to the exceptional build quality and outstanding design we achieved.
