Plans underway for restoring a four-bedroom dwelling on unstable slope terrain
New Balance Eco-Friendly Four-Bedroom House Planned for Tremayne House Site
A new balance four-bedroom detached house is proposed to be built on the site of the current Tremayne House, located beside the East Looe River. The new development aims to be an environmentally friendly, highly energy-efficient 'eco home.'
The main facades of the new house will be a combination of natural stone, timber cladding, and glass and timber balustrading, blending the new building into the soft natural landscape. The house will be built over the road, protecting it from rising river levels, with the existing concrete base being used as a garage and storage area. The raising of the base road will also provide protection to the railway line.
The proposed house will be adaptable, inclusive, resilient, and diverse, allowing for easy alterations to respond to climate change and changing social and economic conditions. The design and layout of the new house will exceed the requirements demanded by the planning and building regulation system to ensure longevity.
The third floor of the new house will be at road level for access, while the second floor will be an open plan kitchen, dining room, lounge area, and a large terrace. The first floor will accommodate the four bedrooms. The ground floor will host a garage and storage room.
Safety measures against landslides to protect the existing road, access path, trees, and railway line over the next ten years are implemented through planning and ecological considerations within municipal regulations. These measures include using permeable surfaces to maintain soil water absorption and restricting certain building elements to protect soil and groundwater. These measures are coordinated with environmental authorities and integrated into binding urban land use plans, as exemplified in Lindenberg i. Allgäu.
The existing structure and surrounds of Tremayne House are deemed unsustainable and need to be deconstructed to make the site safe. The estimated cost of refurbishing the existing structure of Tremayne House exceeds £1m. The plans state that the existing road, access path, trees, and railway line will be protected from further erosion over the next ten years.
The proposed development is seeking pre-application planning advice to understand the likelihood of receiving planning permission and potential key issues. The design aims to sympathetically encompass the immediate ecological needs and building regulation requirements. The new house, when built, is expected to be a significant addition to the local landscape, offering a sustainable and energy-efficient living solution.
