These three two storey terraced family
houses provide much desired social
housing on a brown field site close to
the centre of Guildford.
The site is located on a busy road
close to central Guildford and is
bordered on two further sides by
pedestrian routes used intensively
by local students.
The site lies within a densely
developed area of 19th Century
housing, now designated as a
conservation area. The development
has therefore been designed in terms
of style and materials to fit
naturally within the conservation
area.
|
The houses have level access from the
street with kitchens and bathrooms on
the street side and living areas and
the bedrooms on the quieter garden side,
facing south-west.
Prior to development the site was in
use as a car park Due to a lack of
car parking for residents in the area,
the brief required a number of the
car parking spaces for them in addition
to parking for the development.
