The design of Ardavon House as a luxury apartment building has been carefully considered with detailing to reflect the history and style of the original building. The apartment layouts are designed to take advantage of their orientation in terms of the sun and view and provide a high quality accommodation. The scale and proportion of the elevations and the choice of materials for the scheme all make for an exceptionally high quality building. To complement the luxury apartments and provide a different building tenure, a courtyard of townhouses has been designed as a converted stable courtyard. Brick and natural stone chosen for the materials in the courtyard are reflective of buildings of this type and create a very distinct identity for this building. High specification of materials, hardscape, landscaping and lighting to the courtyard creates a community space for residents to enjoy. The Gatelodge at the entrance to the site had been designed using proportions and detailing also found in the main apartment building. This gives a flavour of the quality of finish and detail on entering the site. The overall scheme is extremely successful in offering luxury apartments, townhouses and detached houses across the site as well as retaining the existing mature vegetation to complement the setting for the newly constructed properties.
