We are pleased to outline proposals and further detail on our current planning application for 34 zero carbon homes and redevelopment of a brownfield site at Southgate House, Devizes.

The Site

Located within close proximity to Devizes town centre this sustainably located brownfield site consists of a two-storey former office building which previously served as the headquarters for the former NHS local Clinical Commissioning Group.

Proposed dwellings will be a similar scale to the former building and respect the existing building line with as much demolition material to be recycled as possible.

Our proposals will provide a total of 34 highly sustainable homes consisting of 1- and 2-bedroom apartments and 3- and 4-bedroom houses. Available to a wide range of purchasers, homes will create a varied community with a mix of high-quality houses and apartments, designed to enhance the site and compliment the surrounding area.

  • Connectivity through the site will be enhanced by introducing a pedestrian link from Potterne Road, through to Pans Lane, utilising an existing access.
  • Homes will be Zero Carbon and exceed current building regulations and both local and national sustainability policy requirements.
  • Homes are designed to maximise energy efficiency through their siting and orientation, high levels of insulation, photovoltaic panels, air source heat pumps for heating and hot water.
  • By providing high quality, sustainable housing now, we hope to ensure housing can positively respond to the current climate emergency.
  • Generous parking will be provided and contained within the site with EV charging points available to all properties.

Landscaping

The existing landscape features will be retained where possible, enhanced, and managed to ensure the development integrates into its existing setting.  Biodiversity on site will be enhanced by providing hedgehog highways, bird boxes with additional provision for Swifts, bat boxes, pollinator planting, new tree planting and retention and management of existing features where possible.

Looking to a sustainable future

Looking to the future, there is a passionate commitment to creating an increasingly sustainable legacy with each and every home. There are many features throughout not only our homes, but also the wider development to help mitigate climate change. Investment is made into technologies over and above current building regulation requirements. This ensures homes can maximise the benefit of solar PV production offsetting grid electricity usage. We typically prioritise using air source heat pumps combined with other technologies to avoid fossil fuel usage that can make homes net zero carbon. Seemingly small touches such as a composter or water butt, or integrated eco bins in every kitchen to encourage recycling mean that it’s the little details that make the biggest difference. Newland Homes prides itself on not only meeting but exceeding current building regulations and planning requirements with the future constantly at the forefront of our plans.

Great design at the heart of every home

Inside each home is an abundance of considered touches of award-winning design. Kitchens are carefully thought out not only in terms of practicality, but comfort too, with the kitchen being the heart of the home. Integrated appliances form part of the standard specification, along with the amount of natural light and task lighting all considered. Principal bedrooms boast built in wardrobes and storage is always considered. Bathrooms ooze relaxation with their high-quality fittings including popular ‘rain’ shower heads, whether you enjoy a long soak, or a quick splash.
