The Proposals

Our scheme will deliver much-needed, new homes for Chigwell, with 50% being affordable.

It will make a valuable contribution to the community by opening up the site, creating publicly-accessible, green spaces to be enjoyed by existing and new residents.

By delivering more homes on the site we can provide an opportunity for young people who aspire to a life in Chigwell and who need a helping hand to get on the housing ladder.

Our proposed scheme

49

The updated proposals enable us to provide 49 affordable homes on-site ranging in size from 1-bed to 4-bed, up from 40 in our previous proposals.

49

Private, for-sale homes from 1-bed to 5-bed, contributing to local housing stock.

107

Car parking spaces including 8 blue badge.

The Northern Glade

This area has been incorporated in the north of the site. The mature trees and new planting will establish a sensitively-designed point of transition between the woodland and the new scheme.

Creating a community through accessible, new green space

Woodland Walk

A new woodland walk will provide a direct route to Chigwell Park Drive providing convenient access to the high street and underground station.

Play Area

The scheme will foster a sense of community through a central green and children’s play area.

Public Green Space

Opening up public access to the site’s green space through a carefully landscaped and well-managed local park.

Quality materials and design to reflect Chigwell’s rural character

The design team has drawn inspiration from local design influences. We have sought to reflect local materials and the local vernacular to reflect Chigwell’s character and to make the most of its attractive, landscape setting. The proposed homes on the scheme’s western edge are orientated towards open meadows allowing the landscape to become an integral part of the daily living experience for the new residents.
