boston road infill

project roundup:

client: private client

location: London

key objectives:

Design of a new infill residential development on land to the rear of 90 Boston Road, creating a three-bedroom House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) within a constrained urban site. 

• Deliver New Housing: Provide high-quality residential accommodation on a small urban infill site. 

• Respond to Local Context: Create a design that respects the surrounding streetscape and neighbouring properties. 

• Maximise Site Potential: Make efficient use of underutilised land while maintaining amenity for residents and neighbours. 

• Promote Sustainability: Incorporate renewable technologies, biodiversity enhancements and sustainable materials. 

• Enhance Urban Character: 
  Deliver a contemporary design that complements the existing built environment. 

This proposal explores the development of a new three-bedroom HMO on a constrained infill site in Hanwell, London. The design responds carefully to the surrounding residential context, drawing on successful examples of urban infill development to create a distinctive yet sensitive addition to the streetscape. 

The scheme combines a single-storey frontage with a two-storey rear element, creating a clear architectural form while respecting neighbouring building lines and minimising impact on adjacent properties. Sustainable design measures include photovoltaic panels, an air source heat pump, permeable paving, green roof systems and biodiversity enhancements. 

The result is a considered residential proposal that demonstrates how small urban sites can contribute positively to housing provision while delivering high-quality design and environmental performance.
