Planning Permission Offices to residential development
Category: Residential
Location: West Midlands
The Assignment
To secure Planning Permission to demolish and replace the office block known as ‘St Peter’s House’ in Coleshill with a residential development of 8 apartments with associated landscaping and parking.
How we succeeded
Louise Hinsley MRTPI successfully demonstrated the proposed development was policy compliant, particularly regarding the housing mix that this development would provide.
Through working closely with heritage consultant Tom Rumley from RPS, and architect Darren Hames from Neil Boddison Associates, Louise successfully demonstrated that the proposed development would be sympathetic of the Coleshill Conservation Area, in which it is situated within. This included the adoption of a Neo-Georgian design to compliment the nearby Grammar School and the existing street-scene.
This approval will allow for the creation of 8 residential apartments of a desirable size and in a desirable location contributing to the provision of housing in the area.
How can we help
The value in employing a town planning consultant is that they will explore the best strategy to secure planning permission to achieve your brief.
