Consented Residential Development Opportunity for 15 Apartments
Boverton House is a detached three storey building, set in grounds measuring approximately 0.87 acres (0.35ha). The building was originally constructed in the late 19th century and is constructed in grey rubble stone and yellow ashlar, with a number of more modern extensions. At the entrance to the site is a stone perimeter wall which provides the boundary to Bulwark Road. In addition to Boverton House itself, there is currently a substantial car park to the south of the house, the stone perimeter wall, and mature vegetation on the northern, southern and western boundaries. The remainder of the site consists of sloped grass and vegetation towards Bulwark Road to the east and to the neighbouring properties to the west.
Internally the property is in a dilapidated condition, having been vacant for many years. The property benefits from a passenger lift, various principal teaching rooms with large sash windows, toilet blocks, cloakrooms and storage rooms. There is a main central staircase with separate rear staircore and external fire escape. Some period features remain internally. The property is not statutorily listed.
The proposal consists of the conversion of Boverton House to provide 6 new apartment dwellings. Boverton House will be retained in its current form, with the modern extensions rendered sympathetically. The proposal enables Boverton House to be brought back into use, following a period of disuse since 2016. The proposal also includes of the development of a new 9-apartment block on the site of the existing car park, similar in scale to Boverton House and drawing inspiration both from the existing design through the use of pitched roofs, bay windows and gable ends, alongside a sympathetic materials palette.
The existing boundary trees will be retained and vehicle and pedestrian access to the site will be achieved through the existing access point at Bulwark Road which will be widened by 2m to improve the access for residents and emergency service vehicles. The existing wall will be swept up the driveway to align with the altered road access. The existing access will be resurfaced and the existing gate refurbished. In total 21 car parking spaces will be provided within the site, and 20% of these will have EV charging points. The proposed new build incorporates renewable energy sources with photovoltaic panels on the roof and air source heat pumps. The proposal will include a total of 15 apartments.
