We are delighted to have secured planning for a new scout hall for the Third Alton Scout Group. The approved scheme also includes a new entrance link between the new and existing halls. The proposal will enable the scouts to double their intake and reduce the long waiting list for membership. The scheme will provide a vital role in the community by improving the learning and friendship opportunities for local kids.

The brief from the scout committee was to retain the existing hall but to maximise space for a new 200 sqm hall, storage area, and entrance with facilities. The brief had to be achieved within the tight constraints of the site and the requirement to maintain a suitable outdoor activity space.

Our solution was a new entrance linking the existing and new halls in an angled L-shape arrangement along the side boundary. A key consideration in the design process was the requirement for an integrated sustainability strategy. The inclusion of solar panels and the east-west orientation of the new building will provide a design solution harnessing technology and location.

The planning approval process was aided by the support of Highway Consultant, Nick Culhane.

Detailed design will be commencing soon with on-site works planned for 2023. We will keep you updated as this key community project progresses.

In the meantime, the clients are able to enjoy their newly transformed home, which includes an open plan kitchen and family area with brushed concrete floor tiles and a high-quality sliding door system with minimal framing. Strategically positioned roof light compliment the overall design to ensure natural light will be optimised for tasks and enjoyment. We look forward to sharing more completed pictures in the near future.

The property was built by our client's father and the proposal will ensure the house can remain with the family and will be fit for current lifestyle trends.

The proposed design will feature newly rendered walls and timber cladding. The internal space has been opened up at the rear to maximise views of the garden but also to act as a hub for the couple and their visiting family. The existing bedrooms have been reconfigured with en-suites to allow for family members to stay overnight. A new master bedroom has been created in the loft space which affords wonderful views of the surrounding countryside. The sustainability of the property was a key criterion for the client and, to this end, solar panels and a sedum roof have been incorporated into the design.

Work on-site for this exciting project is due to start in the early summer.

We are pleased to report our project in Long Sutton is progressing on track. The new bricks and roof tiles have been successfully matched with the existing materials to create a harmonious look. The windows and sliding doors are due to be installed next week, which will enable the internal works to start.

The key tasks will include the installation of the new kitchen and the removal of the existing rear wall to connect the kitchen and extension into an open plan space. We are looking forward to completion in the coming weeks. The work is being undertaken by Marshall and Mace.

The kitchen will form the hub of the scheme and will provide stunning views of the north Hampshire countryside. We are looking forward to the completion date in the coming weeks, which will mark the end of our client's 12-month journey from the original concept designs to completion.

The approved scheme will greatly improve the appearance of a tired looking 1960s detached house.

The key features of the scheme include extensive remodelling of the existing ground floor layout to include the conversion of the garage to a playroom and a new open plan kitchen, dining and living area. The first floor will feature a new master bedroom with vaulted ceiling.

Work is due to start later in the year.

We are delighted to have secured listed building consent in Old Alresford. The approval is for a garden room extension on the rear of a converted farm building. The property forms part of a small development of previously converted agricultural barns and buildings.

The proposal will enable our client to enjoy the spectacular views of their garden and surrounding Hampshire countryside all year round. The extension is in keeping with the existing property, using matching materials and a sympathetic form that compliments the original building. The proposal will feature a vaulted ceiling and extensive glazing to maximise the views and natural light. We are particularly delighted with the result as a previous application for a smaller scheme by another agent was unsuccessful.

Work is due to start on site later this year.

We are pleased to report that our project in Upton Grey is nearing completion. The kitchen is currently being fitted and once the new feature oak stairs with glazed panels have been installed in the hall the transformation will be complete.

The works have also included reconfiguration of the ground floor layout, conversion of an integral garage, and a new glazed front extension. The completed works will enable family life to be enhanced and future-proofed. The build works have been undertaken by RP Superstructures.
