Our emerging proposals
Our emerging proposals are for 24 new homes, private gardens and balconies, and secure storage for 38 bicycles.
About the site
The site is located in Northolt, in the northwest of the London Borough of Ealing. It covers approximately 0.09 hectares and comprises the existing detached residential building at 191 Church Road and an adjoining area of open land.

Our proposals
The proposals are for 24 high-quality new homes (including 10 one-bed, 10 two-bed, and four three-bed apartments), private external spaces and secure parking for 38 bicycles.
The design responds to the varied character of the surrounding area. It combines pitched and flat roofs with carefully positioned private balconies, helping to protect residents’ privacy and connect the homes with their internal and external environment.
The architecture draws inspiration from nearby buildings, including 270–272 Church Road and Sarah Court, as well as the distinctive curve of Church Road as it approaches the Target Roundabout. Together, these features will help the development sit comfortably within its surroundings.
To illustrate our proposals in more detail, we have prepared a series of sketches showing how the new homes will appear from different viewpoints.
