Arnal Crescent
New Housing Accommodation | Hidden Homes Project
Stamford Contracts is pleased to showcase our recent project at Arnal Crescent, Wandsworth, where we successfully undertook a significant housing development for the London Borough of Wandsworth. This project involved transforming an existing open ground floor undercroft into two new residential flats, alongside relocating the car parking area to optimise the use of space and enhance the overall functionality of the property.
Project Overview
The Arnal Crescent project required a two-stage process to achieve the objectives set out by the client. Our role was to infill the undercroft area beneath the existing residential block to create two new flats, addressing the growing demand for housing in the area. Additionally, we relocated the car parking facilities to better accommodate the needs of the residents and improve accessibility.
Project Outcome
The completion of the Arnal Crescent project has significantly enhanced the residential offerings in Wandsworth, providing two new high-quality flats that meet the needs of local residents. The successful relocation of the car parking area has improved accessibility and functionality, contributing to the overall satisfaction of the community and the client.
Challenges and Solutions
Infill Construction:
Converting the open ground floor undercroft into habitable flats presented several challenges, including structural considerations and integration with the existing building. Our team conducted a comprehensive assessment and employed advanced construction techniques to infill the undercroft, ensuring that the new flats were seamlessly integrated with the existing block. The result was a pair of modern, functional residential units that met the high standards expected by the client and future occupants.
Relocation of Car Parking:
Relocating the car parking area required careful planning and execution to ensure minimal disruption to the residents and surrounding community. We developed a detailed relocation plan that included creating new parking spaces in a more suitable location, thereby improving accessibility and enhancing the overall functionality of the development. Our team managed this aspect with precision, ensuring that the new parking facilities were both convenient and well-integrated into the site’s layout.
Project Coordination:
Effective project management was crucial to the success of this development. Our team coordinated closely with the London Borough of Wandsworth to ensure that all aspects of the project were completed on time and within the agreed-upon specifications. Regular progress updates and collaborative problem-solving helped us address any issues promptly and keep the project on track.
