A residential scheme in Swindon, designed by McBains on behalf of Lagan Homes, has been granted planning permission by Swindon Borough Council.
The development on Marlborough Road will provide 70 new homes, together with associated parking, amenity space and infrastructure. A mix of social and market housing is provided, comprising one- and two-bedroom apartments and two-, three- and four-bedroom houses.
Dwellings are predominantly two storeys in height, with some 2.5 storey townhouses and focal apartment buildings of three storeys acting as a gateway to the site.
Peter O’Rourke, Director at McBains commented: “We’re delighted to have secured planning approval for this mixed tenure scheme in Swindon. With its close proximity to the Great Western Hospital, we’re hoping the development will provide much needed accommodation for hospital staff”.
