Ellenborough Road, London, N22

This 288 sq m site in a popular residential area in Wood Green has planning permission for a 3 bedroom single storey house with a private courtyard and walled garden. Just a mile from the tube station, it’s close to shops, parks, and other amenities.

SITE DESCRIPTION
The site, which has planning permission for a 146 sq m single storey three bedroom house, is largely hidden from view from Ellenborough Road and accessed via a shared driveway.

Approximately L-shaped and located behind rows of 2-3 storey terraced houses to the north and east, with 3 storey Irving Court apartment block and its outdoor space to the west and south, the site is currently occupied by several dilapidated brick and corrugated metal garages, with ground cover of hard standing and minimal vegetation.

The plans for the proposed new property comprise a 146 sq m house, a 55 sq m private garden, and a private entrance with a 28 sq m courtyard.

The entrance to the new property will retain existing access arrangement via the shared driveway on Ellenborough Road. From this shared access, double doors will lead to a private courtyard which will have doors to the property (the main entrance), to three storage rooms (for cycles, bins, and general) as well as to a walled garden.

The proposed house is approximately T-shaped with a large 33’3” by 24’2” open plan living space (living room, dining room, kitchen) at the centre, and three well-appointed bedroom suites to each of the three sides, comprising:

Main bedroom 30’7” x 18’10” plus en suite shower room and dressing room
Bedroom 2 12’6” x 10‘3” plus en suite bathroom and laundry room
Bedroom 3 13’3” x 9‘8” plus en suite shower room

The main living space will have lots of natural light glazed from glazed bifold doors opening onto the walled garden at one end, a lightwell at the other, a central lantern roof and skylight.

The approved plans include provision for living roofs, air source heat pumps, a vegetable garden, and a water butt.
