Description
Forest House is a consented, one-off, new build development opportunity for a low-energy timber-framed, timber-clad, two-storey architecturally designed eco-house. The house is a 2,605 sqft 4-bed timber-framed house, with the potential to separate part of it off to create a standalone, separately accessed ‘studio house’ with a small garden (STPP). This would leave a 3/4 bed main house with front and rear gardens. All mature trees and a self-sown hedgerow will be retained as an integral part of the design. The house has been specifically designed with surrounding nature in mind with laser scanning used to accurately model the trees in 3d. Designed by award-winning architect and self-builder Jonathan Pile of Oval Partnership Architecture. Inspiration coming from a previous project by director Jonathan Pile, which was nominated for RIBA House of the Year 2019 and as a result, was featured on the Grand Designs RIBA House of the Year series in 2019.
Location
The site is well located in the heart of Sydenham, a fast-developing area of South East London. It is within 0.1 miles of Sydenham Station offering regular trains into London Bridge as well as having good access to nearby shops and amenities of Sydenham. The site is also well connected to the wider South East London areas and has good transport links to Crystal Palace, Dulwich and Forest Hill in the locality.
Existing
The site is clear of any buildings with a light vegetation covering. Design Designed by award winning architect and self-builder Jonathan Pile of Oval Partnership Architecture Ltd. Project inspired by his previous design famed for being the Grand Design’s House of the Year 2019, South London House, Deptford.
Price
Offers in the region of £325,000 for the freehold interest.
