550-552 High Road – London Borough of Redbridge
Planning permission granted in December 2019 for redevelopment of site with a five-storey building providing 9 flats and ground floor retail.
Key facts:
- The approval follows a previous consent on the site for 7 flats (obtained by others) so we enhanced the value of the site considerably.
- With an extant permission, we demonstrated that the additional development was an efficient use of the land and delivered more dwellings in light of the Councils acute housing need.
- We have an excellent working relationship with LB Redbridge and through pre-app discussions we were able to confirm early on that a height of 5 storeys was appropriate.
- We were also able to secure permission swiftly following submission and no amendments necessary required from officers
- All flats are of considerable quality, all exceeding minimum standards and all but one having large balconies/terraces.
