Construction has commenced on the development of a new residential project at Manor Farm in Mickleover, with the transformation of existing redundant farm buildings into a small, exclusive cluster of homes.
Ashbourne-based Matthew Montague Architects have designed the dwellings working in partnership with site owners Chevin Homes.
This project comprises five single-story dwellings (bungalows) and one house in a private cul-de-sac setting.
The design complements the historical and heritage significance of the area. Architect Matthew Montague said: “I have been involved with this site for over 5 years, working with Chevin Homes most recently to gain approval, however planning discussions go back as far as 2014, so it has been a long time in the pipeline; largely due to the sensitive location.”
The original Manor Farm Farmhouse, gardens and courtyard of barns are not part of this development. These buildings are for sale via auction due to take place at the end of February. Full detailed planning permssion was also gained by the Architects Practice for conversion of the barns for sale within this lot.
