In its current form, Toft Cottage is a detached four bedroom rendered
house that needs updating, with an integral self-contained 1/2 bedroom
annexe and an assortment of old garages and sheds. Planning permission
(Application Ref: 21/03226/FUL) was granted on the 16th of August 2022
for the erection of a replacement two-storey, six bedroom dwelling with a
garage and office. The proposed replacement dwelling has a
contemporary, innovative design with large amounts of glazing, including
floor-to-ceiling windows. The external facing and roofing are proposed to
be finished with zinc metal sheeting, with the gable end, entrance wall and
underside of the projecting gable frames finished with horizontal cedar
cladding. The new house, which would extend to just under 3,800 sq ft, will
have an L-shaped configuration, with largely the same location and
orientation as existing but with a projecting wing. The wing provides an
open-fronted double garage and stores on the ground floor, with a 32ft
long studio/office above. The studio, which also has an adjoining shower
room, can be accessed through the house or via an external flight of steps.
GARDEN and GROUNDS
A tarmac drive sweeps down off the A435 to the existing house and is
intended to serve the new home. The established grounds surround the
property and are interspersed by a variety of mature trees, including
beech, Corsican pine, lime and a small productive Orchard. The owners
have had the boundary hedge laid to enjoy the surrounding countryside
views and also established a wildflower meadow which includes wild
orchids and an abundance of yellow rattle. The site follows the gentle
contours of the Churn Valley and is well-screened from the road by an
established tree line. In all, there are just under 2.5 acres.
