Jacobean Close
Highcliffe, Dorset
Jacobean Close demonstrates a successful plot severance in Highcliffe, Dorset, turning a long garden site into a modern, saleable dwelling. This project addresses the common challenge of site availability for new build homes while respecting the scale, character, and massing of neighbouring properties.
Our clients’ site, backing onto a side street, presented the ideal opportunity for a new build through plot subdivision. The design balances traditional form with contemporary detailing, resulting in a home that feels both timeless and modern. Careful planning ensured the dwelling is efficient to construct, functional, and appealing to the market, despite the constraints of a relatively tight site.
The completed home showcases how a thoughtful plot severance in Highcliffe can create high-quality, context-sensitive architecture that enhances the neighbourhood while delivering modern living spaces.
