High Street, E11

New Build

3 three-storey townhouses, 4 apartments and a penthouse to the rear and a M&S Simply Food store to the front.

Location, Location, Location !

Completed Project of a New Build 4 storey Apartment block with four Apartments, a Penthouse and three 3 storey Houses over a new ‘M&S Simply Food’ concept. The frontages of the 3 storey Townhouse on the 1st Floor were at an angle to the site boundaries and the Oriel windows were angled in the opposite direction !

This development is in a conservation area and required a lot of detailed planning work with recessed brick shadow gaps with soldier coursing blending the rustic Orange/Red bricks with White brick frontage all above a Portland Stone ground floor facade plinth.

The original building had to be demolished by hand next to a listed 19th Century Pub with a shared 25 metre chimney stack which had to be permanently steel propped followed by Complete Re-Build. There was underpinning to some of the surrounding buildings with a piled steel structure to 1st Transfer slab with steel decking above. Best new addition to the Wanstead Streetscape in decades…..in our humble but biased opinion.
