Finzels Reach, Bristol
Mixed-Use Development - Savills provided integrated development, sales and investment advice on this major city centre regeneration scheme, delivering over 400 residential units, a hotel and 250,000 sq ft of commercial space. Their involvement included forward funding deals, office lettings and investment sales, achieving strong pre-letting performance and record rental levels for Bristol.
Infill Dwelling, Dorset Hampshire
Private Residential - Following a refused planning application, Savills reviewed the scheme and developed an alternative design better aligned with site constraints and local authority requirements. The revised ‘treehouse’ concept embedded part of the home into the sloping site while elevating living spaces into the tree canopy, improving light, privacy and planning viability.
Woodview, Hampshire
Private Residential - Savills designed a contemporary replacement dwelling within an eight-acre woodland site with complex topography and a former quarry. The resulting five-bedroom home was carefully integrated into the landscape, using split levels to maximise light, views and functionality while delivering a high-quality, site-responsive design aligned with the client’s brief.
