New Build Bungalow

Project Location:

Braeside Bungalow

Project Description:

This project was a little different than others as we were contracted to design a dormer bungalow within a Conservation area on a garden plot with very limited space. The site was also very unusual in its shape. SDA Architecture had many external influences to attend with on top of the usual design constraints and parking layout issues. During design feasibility we produced numerous different shapes of properties until we decided with our client’s input which shape was best suited to the site and surroundings.

The design footprint we decided on was to be a ‘T’ shaped property in plan. This maximise the sites unusual shape and also the accommodation space internally. We produced a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom dormer bungalow with great ground floor living space and parking off-street for 2 vehicles.  We were conscious at all times during the design process that our client wanted to complete a self-build for the very first time, therefore our construction approach needed to be thought out in great detail to reduce the risk of over-spend and simplify the construction methods to ease on site construction. We believe this was fully achieved and our clients produce a building of very high standard on schedule and on budget.
