Description

This prime development opportunity occupies a prominent position at the junction of Martello Road South and Oratory Gardens within the prestigious Canford Cliffs.

The site comes with approved planning and design by Marlow Architects, detailing a structure that spans three levels and approximately 3,900 square feet of internal space.

The proposed plans feature a striking entrance atrium with a double-height void and a floating staircase connecting the primary zones.

Designed as the heart of the site, featuring a vast open-plan living and dining area with a linear fireplace, supported by a significant walk-in pantry and separate utility room.

Specifications include floor-to-ceiling glazing across the lower level to ensure a seamless transition to landscaped gardens and composite decking (prepped for an outdoor kitchen).

The layout provides for four double bedrooms, each with a high-end private ensuite. The master suite is designed as an expansive retreat with a relaxation area, walk-in dressing room, and private decked terrace.

The plans include a dedicated private study, a laundry/linen room, and an integrated garage equipped with an EV charging point.

The design showcases a sophisticated mix of mid-grey aluminium-framed glazing, timber-effect cladding, and light grey render.
