BACKGROUND

This design and access statement accompanies the planning application for the erection of a new dwelling on a site located on Scures Hill, Nately Scures.

ACGARCHITECTS.CO.UK 188_D&A STATEMENT 4 SECTION 01 INTRODUCTION TO SCHEME

INTRODUCTION TO SCHEME

At present the existing house, Nately Towers is unsuitable for the client who is restricted to a wheel-chair. Permission is being sought for the erection of a new 4no. bedroom family house which is fully wheel-chair accessible and which provides sufficient facilities for the specialist care required by the client; physiotherapy pool, gym and carer’s suite.

The client is owner of the Nately Towers site and it is proposed that the existing property be retained with a sizeable garden area, and the site be divided in two in order to provide adequate space for the new dwelling and its garden.
