The development would utilise the vehicular access for Edinburgh House / Gate.

footprint measuring roughly 41m x 9m.

The apartments would be on the top 3 storeys. All would be at least dual-aspect units with
balconies utilising both north and south facing elevations. The end units also benefit from
additional windows on the side elevations. The ground floor level would comprise garages /
under-croft parking spaces, communal cycle storage and refuse/recycle storage. A total of
12 car parking spaces are proposed, some in areas surrounding the building. A secure 24
space cycle store is to be provided.
.
The building would be finished externally with a combination of different materials, including
brickwork and white and dark grey cladding. The balconies would have glass balustrade
panels. The garage doors on the ground floor would be timber.
