25/AP/3182 Awaiting decision
20 Gylcote Close London Southwark SE5 8EU
Proposal for an existing 1960's ground floor flat. To upgrade the flat to meet modern safety, energy and comfort standards. The additional internal floor area is 29m2. The rear is proposed to extend 4m and the side, 1.8m. This has resulted in the improved the volume to surface area ratio which reduces heat loss rate. This has also improved the quality of the property by the addition of a third bedroom as well as the efficient use of space to introduce one new bathroom and a living room kitchen arrangement where previously the rooms were small and closed off. A patio will extend into the garden and a new fence will replace the existing which is in poor condition, on the side return. To ensure environmental alignment, the proposal considers a whole house approach by introducing external wall insulation to existing walls to reduce energy consumption of the property and to work efficiently with an air source heat pump and underfloor heating. The garden will be planted with plants local to the UK. No changes have been made to communal areas and the use remains as residential.
