Station Road, Enfield — 6 Residential Flats | RPR Planning
Developer Project
Station Road
6 residential flats, Enfield
RPR unlocked the development potential of a derelict backland garage site in Enfield, securing planning permission for 6 new residential flats — enabling the original owner to sell with consent and achieve a strong profit margin.
Project Overview
From derelict garage site to 6 new homes
The site at Station Road, Enfield, was a dilapidated backland garage plot with confined access, surrounded by Victorian terraced housing. The client's objective was to secure planning permission for residential development and sell the site with consent — maximising its value without undertaking the build themselves.
RPR carried out a full development site appraisal to establish the planning potential of the constrained plot, before preparing an architectural design for a new three-storey building providing 6 self-contained flats: 3 one-bedroom, 2 two-bedroom and 1 three-bedroom unit. The design features buff brick with dark metal window frames, large glazed openings and glass balustrades — a contemporary response that sits comfortably within the surrounding residential context.
Following a detailed pre-application process and extensive engagement with Enfield Council's planning department, RPR prepared and submitted a full planning application with a comprehensive suite of supporting documents. Planning consent was secured after a thorough process, enabling the client to sell the site with permission in place and achieve a strong return on their investment.
