We are thrilled to announce that our proposed replacement dwelling in Lanercost has received planning approval.
Project Snapshot: Nestled within 1.6 acres in the picturesque village of Lanercost, our design replaces an existing 3-bedroom house with a contemporary family home. This design not only offers privacy and scenic views but also respects and enhances the rural character of the area.
Design Highlights:
- Local Context: Inspired by the region’s agricultural architecture, our design seamlessly blends traditional materials like timber and stone with modern elements such as zinc and expansive glazing to maximize natural light and views.
- Sustainability: At the heart of our project is a commitment to sustainability. The new dwelling will be highly energy-efficient, powered by renewable energy sources, and built to exceed current environmental standards.
- Landscaping: A landscaping-first approach ensures that the home integrates flawlessly with its surroundings, preserving existing trees and enriching the site’s green spaces.
- Respectful Layout: The home’s layout optimizes land use and lighting, maintaining a considerate distance from the road to uphold privacy.
Compliance and Future Outlook: Our design adheres to the Carlisle Local Plan and the National Planning Policy Framework, emphasizing superior design and respect for the local environment. With planning now approved, we look forward to breaking ground and transforming this concept into a functional, beautiful, and sustainable family home, poised to meet the needs of future generations.
