Located in Stockwell’s sought-after Lansdowne Gardens Conservation Area, this plot has planning permission for a contemporary, split level 2 / 3 bedroom detached house approximately 1,900 sq ft in size.

Designed by the acclaimed Carl Turner Architects, the proposed house features large expanses of glass and courtyard gardens. CTA’s belief is that “buildings should be fun, and strive to consistently deliver architecture with real identity” and this is certainly evident here, especially considering the setting within one of London’s longest established conservation areas.

Accommodation is proposed to include two double bedrooms, an open plan kitchen / living / dining area, a studio / bedroom, bathroom, and an upper and lower courtyard garden with the proposed addition of a mature tree as a key feature. The widespread use of glass maximises natural light, yet the house has been designed to still offer great levels of privacy, particularly for the bedrooms on the lower level.

Carl Turner Architects is a young, London-based practice with a strong reputation for outstanding design. Their work, and Turner’s previous work as a director of Turner Castle Architects, has featured widely in the architecture and design press with their most recent house in Borough, London being featured in Wallpaper magazine.

Lansdowne Gardens Conservation Area is characterised by large 19th Century
villas in mature gardens, and is notable for having a circular ‘village green’ at it’s centre. The site is a short walk from Stockwell underground station (Northern and Victoria Lines – only three stops from Victoria) and there is a good local bus network. Stockwell is a busy and a diverse area with an array of restaurants, pubs and bars, and several well-regarded schools.
