Laburnum Farm
A development of nine dwellings constructed to a very high specification on the site of derelict village farm. The brief required a broad mix of unit type and sizes; comprising cottages, double fronted detached villas, which reflect the style and character of traditional cottages and farm buildings.
The roof, materials and building storey heights vary between units to articulate a streetscape characteristic of the village. The road frontage comprises a variety of dwelling types, which has been arranged to echo the green spaces and breaks within the linear street pattern. Behind the properties the site is accessed via a shared private access serving 5 dwellings which are located close to the road to give an enclosed farm courtyard feel.
