Langsmead Bungolow

This development replaces outdated structures with contemporary homes that enhance the site while respecting the greenbelt setting. Designed by local planning guidance, the proposal reduces overall building volume while meeting all spatial and environmental requirements.

The site layout is thoughtfully planned, incorporating a mix of private gardens and shared green spaces that enhance biodiversity and maintain natural buffers. A landscape buffer at the front preserves greenery along the private access road, creating a seamless transition into the development. The homes are positioned to reflect the scale and density of neighbouring properties, with four three-bedroom, one four-bedroom, and two five-bedroom detached units. The design respects the surrounding context, with lower elevations facing west to complement the adjacent chalet-style properties. Most units are arranged over two storeys, with one featuring additional accommodation in the roof space.

A carefully selected material palette, shallow roof pitches, and an L-shaped layout ensure a harmonious blend with the natural environment. Expansive glazing maximises natural light, while open-plan interiors and double-height spaces enhance modern family living.

This development fosters a sustainable, visually cohesive, and thoughtfully designed community by balancing contemporary architecture with its greenbelt surroundings.
