A self-build four-bedroom detached house in London Borough of Redbridge. With a split-level arrangement the house takes advantage of the natural falls on the unique corner plot to provide the entrance and main living space at street level before stepping down to an open-plan kitchen/dining room and secluded garden at the rear.
The contemporary home responds to the suburban and Mock Tudor characters of two neighbouring Conservation Areas with soft red bricks to the ground floor and a framed brick relief detail in chalky white bricks to the upper storey.
The characterful gable end presents a strong silhouette to the approach road, signalling the domesticity of the area and offering a diagrammatic reading of the plan form.
