Antoneys Close

The site area is 495 sqm and comprises an existing area of hardstanding which is informally utilised for car parking. The eastern, western and southern site boundaries are characterised by mature trees and vegetation.

The site is located within a predominantly residential area, with Antoneys Close itself being characterised by various housing typologies including one storey bungalows, two storey terraced houses and three storey flatted buildings. The surrounding area is characterised by single storey bungalows within The Dell and Haywood Close, and two storey buildings immediately adjacent to the site. Directly to the north of the site is 46a Antoneys Close which is a two storey terraced house.

Site investigations: The following site surveys are available for download and bidders should take the following information into consideration when generating proposals:

• Topographical survey including buried services and ground penetrating radar
• Geotechnical and Geo-Environmental desktop and intrusive studies
• Asbestos survey
• UXO phase 2 desktop survey
• Ecological assessment and Tree Survey
• Site Access highways assessment

Planning assessment: Local Planning Authority comments (see Harrow Council LPA Planning Statement) indicate that any new development would need to reflect the verdant and open character of existing front boundary treatments and be no more than two storeys in heights. This site is suitable for 2 x two storey semi-detached family dwelling houses. Any proposal would need to ensure that adequate off-street parking is provided and maintain an active and landscaped frontage. The site does not fall within a Conservation Area nor does it contain any listed buildings. The site falls within a Critical Drainage Area.

To the south, east and north of the site is a large green space which is characterised by mature trees and designated as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINC). It will be important that any development minimises or avoids impacts on the ecological value of the SINC, mitigating and compensating for any direct or indirect impacts where they occur.

There are no trees on-site protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO). However, there are a number of trees which are subject to TPOs adjacent to the eastern site boundary, which form part of a wider Tree Preservation Area Order. Adjacent to the northern boundary of the site to the rear of 46a Antoneys Close is a TPO Group Location. Careful consideration is required in terms of the potential impacts of development to their root protection areas and their long-term viability. The site is bounded to the east by protected woodland.
