Bell Cornwell Projects
Restoration of and Alterations to Listed Building - Lennox
Gardens, London
Client: Spink Property
Architects: Coll Hill Spink
Local Authority: Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea
Bell Cornwell assisted Spink Property in obtaining planning
permission and listed building consent for the restoration of a
listed property back into its original use as a single family
dwelling.
The property, designed by George Devy in red brick Queen Anne
Revival architectural style, is grade II listed and lies within a
conservation area. Special care was therefore needed with the
refurbishment project in retaining original architectural features
and restoring/reinstating other features where necessary.
The scheme included a contemporary glass lift located within an
enclosed lightwell at the rear thereby identifying how contemporary
design can integrate well with historic buildings without
compromising the architectural or historic integrity of the listed
building whilst allowing the residential accommodation to meet
modern day living requirements.
