Brook View, Farmborough

Construction of 8 luxury 5-bedroom dwellings including groundworks, external landscaping and interior finishes.

01

Context & Planning

Bauvill were approached by United Trust Bank to take on this project after the former main contractor went into liquidation during the early phases. Of the 8 dwellings, 5 of them were partially built with interior works still to complete, although the remaining 3 properties had only the foundations and part brickwork complete. Despite the project being located in Bath, we overcame numerous procurement constraints through detailed design strategies. We secured and maintained new relationships through the entirety of this project, despite concerns from the client, and delivered the project on time and to a high standard. 6 plots have already been sold prior to PC due to the specification of the high-quality finish and workmanship.
