Glenman Corporation delivers new housing redevelopment in Walthamstow
Progressive London and South East based construction company transforms an existing site in Walthamstow, North East London.
The project comprises the demolition of sixteen apartments and the construction of a 3000m2 four-storey block of eight spacious ground and first-floor duplex maisonettes with nineteen modern apartments on the upper floors. This is the third project that the company has delivered for the same client, Clarion Housing Group.
John Doyle, Contracts Manager at Glenman Corporation, said: “We are proud to have been part of the Clarion Housing Group delivery team again, and to complete the Calver Court Redevelopment in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. The development has been designed and delivered to maximise the existing site footprint whilst creating an outdoor balcony and garden areas for the residents. We have doubled the floor area and accommodation from the previous building, and provided high quality and spacious dwellings for affordable rent.”
Every aspect of this recently completed project is engineered to provide the residents with comfortable, high performing homes. In this regard, the efficient fenestrations and mechanical ventilation heat recovery system are carefully designed to ensure low air permeability and completely avoid rail noise nuisance, as the building borders with National Rail’s overground line on the west side. Furthermore, the installation of energy condensing boilers and PV panels reduces electricity usage and enhances the sustainability of the project.
John Doyle added: “Ambering Park adjacent to Calver Court has benefitted from the security, boundary treatment and external lighting. Calver Court is within close proximity to bustling Wood Street Station, trendy Walthamstow and the Walthamstow Wetlands international nature reserve.”
