Chesham Masterplan

Chesham Waterside (provisional title) is a large-scale masterplan and design project the office is currently running, which resides adjacent to a London Underground railway, commercial estate, allotment, and council owned car-park.

The backland TFL site is extensive at over 2acres, primarily derelict, comprises over 200tonnes of contamination from previous uses and currently serves no viable or beneficial use to the local area and town at large, having remained empty for many years whilst being in a highly sustainable location.

A group of beautiful mature willow trees surround the perimeter of the site, creating a natural border and barrier. This natural barrier ensures that our proposals will remain subordinate to nature and help to create an exceptional neighbourhood which is truly unique to find within the South-East.

Properties will be able to boast of waterfronts at the bottom of their gardens. Early designs indicate a group of detached and terraced properties each with a private waterfrontage, a significant proportion will be affordable housing. May 2020: Defined plans are not yet created for any of the various concepts we are considering and will inevitably develop in collaboration with the local authority and community.

Design will be contemporary yet sensitively incorporated into this neighbourhood – built to the very best standards through using premium materials, impeccable architectural design, and seamless integration with the town.

Provisions will be made to ensure minimal disruption to transport facilities through the design and integration of cycle and private car parking facilities.

2024: We are working with a national gym operator who is exploring a car-free scheme for the site as part of their plans to expand into Chesham and Amersham. Currently, there is a stark shortage of high-quality gym and fitness facilities in the area which offer anything beyond the basic services. As a substantial hospitality sector group, they would create a world-class facility including outdoor sauna and spa areas, extensive gym facilities unrivalled in the area and sporting facilities such as squash and Padel.
2024: We are exploring Affordable Housing schemes which go hand-in-hand with market-supply housing to provide family housing in Chesham.
