Design
The development has been sensitively designed to reflect the local character of Great Baddow and wider surrounding areas.
The development has been divided into separate ‘character zones’, each with individual designs and building materials to ensure that the new homes are in keeping with the local landscape and surroundings.
The house types proposed, though varied, are in keeping with existing house types throughout Great Baddow. The homes proposed will fully integrate and actively enhance the character of the surroundings in which they sit.
The development has been carefully designed to protect local heritage features like the Bronze Age ringwork and views towards Chelmsford City Centre.
Additionally, the development includes a diverse sequence of attractive spaces integrating retained and enhanced landscape features with a new framework of locally characteristic, high quality landscape elements. This will ensure a highly attractive development that responds positively to the landscape and comprises substantial areas of green space.
Please see below some illustrations of the different types of new homes proposed.
