Bournemouth Borough Council: Pure Town Planning are pleased to report that we have just secured planning permission to convert an existing commercial premises that was in use as a bank (Use Class A2), into 1 x retail unit (Use Class A1) and 3 x 2 bedroom flats on Winton high street in Bournemouth. The approved development provides residential development in a highly sustainable location on Wimborne Road.
The scheme, which was designed by Anders Roberts Cheer, utilises the existing layout of the building and provides spacious open plan living to occupiers with on-site bin and cycle provisions for both the commercial and residential premises. Being mindful of the immediate surroundings and neighbouring occupiers the development features sensitive fenestration arrangements and balcony screens to safeguard privacy.
As part of the application, we prepared a comprehensive supporting design, access and planning statement which set out the merits of the proposal in a clear and concise manner, whilst making it clear that the development was in accordance within adopted planning policies that support economic growth and residential development through the reuse of existing buildings.
