Sovini Construction announce the completion of its new mixed tenure housing scheme, Kings Park, situated in Seaforth, Merseyside to One Vision Housing.
Both companies form part of The Sovini Group. Sovini Construction were approached by One Vision Housing to construct 21 units, consisting of 16 two and three-bedroom homes and 5 two-bedroom bungalows designed based on accessibility at the centre for residents aged 55 and over in the Sefton area.
Sovini Construction commissioned a modern development that was representative of the areas varying socio-economic demographics, whilst respecting the history of the site.
To commemorate the historic nature of the developments, Sovini Construction suitably named the site – Kings Park as it is situated on a former 19th century Army Barracks for the Kings Cavalry Regiment.
The project from start to completion took a total of 56 weeks, and all work undertaken was built with quality control measures in mind, and in conjunction with up to date LABC and Building Regulations.
As part of the project brief, key specifications were requested with One Vision Housings customers in mind. Detailed header feature panels to front elevations were constructed to add a luxe design to the properties, alongside the installation of double drives. In the planning stages of the development with BYA Architects and structural Engineers, Sutcliffe, space had been allocated within each plot for the fixture of a bird box, following the local area conservation report stipulating the presence of local wildlife. With a vision to create thriving and inclusive communities, a communal playground has been erected on the development site, boasting a vast public open space for tenants to enjoy.
Sovini Construction are committed to reducing their carbon footprint through the fast adaption of new technologies, the recasting of supply chain and procurement models. Adhering to The Sovini Groups Net Zero Carbon commitment, each stage of the constriction process was planned with our pledge in mind. Each plot holds an electric car charging point, and benefits from A+ efficiency boilers used in each property, alongside being fully insulated using 75mm ridged board cavity insulation, 100mm party wall insulation and 450mm loft insulation.
Sovini Trade Supplies who are also a member of The Sovini Group were able to supply trades materials locally via electric vehicles, this reducing our carbon footprint from outsourcing.
For this project, Multiple Sovini Construction and Sovini Property Services apprentices involved in the scheme, enabling them to gain vital work experience and evidence to support their course criteria. We go above and beyond, providing each apprentice with a bespoke learning programme to ensure they receive the maximum training and qualifications. The Kings Park development construction provided apprentices with a hands-on understanding of their trade, and the opportunity to demonstrate these practical skills on site.
Furthermore, Sovini Construction and One Vision Housing demonstrated partnership working with the project being delivered in line with what was in the agreed scope, within agreed timescales and to budget.
Sovini Construction were approached by One Vision Housing to construct 23 new affordable dwellings, consisting of 15 one-bedroom apartments and 8 two-bedroom homes in Southport. They were challenged to construct a modern development that respects its historical context, and has a positive impact on this particular area of Southport.
Sovini Construction were tasked with ensuring that there were five apartments on each of the three floors within the apartment block, each with one double bedroom. The apartments were constructed to have an open plan living space containing the kitchen, dining and living room areas which front on to the communal gardens. Sovini Construction were briefed to design the 8 houses to be fronted onto the parking areas with an entrance hall containing the downstairs toilet and study. They were briefed to ensure an open plan ground floor with a living, kitchen, dining arrangement. The 1st floor contains two double bedrooms, a shared bathroom and linen store.
Finally, Sovini Construction were tasked with guaranteeing 15 parking bays for the mews houses together with bike storage and 10 parking bays servicing the apartment block.
Sovini Construction worked closely with Sovini Homes to carefully construct the four luxury properties in one of the region’s most prime property locations.
The properties were built using quality materials within safe working environments and created a number of local job opportunities during the building process.
By avoiding strictly rectangular floor plans the buildings respond to the various interface issues presented by the site. Additionally, the stepping of the plans meant the buildings present differing facets of their architecture depending on where they are viewed from.
Feature windows were introduced projecting into the street-facing gable, providing vertical emphasis and interest to the street elevations and naturally lighting full height volumes to the master bedrooms. The gable eaves project forward off the brick facade casting shadows and further modelling the elevation.
The four properties were all developed and delivered on time and to budget.
We were offered a clear site to build the luxury homes on and carried out the following works:
- Built foundations and superstructure
- Installation of services
- Internal plastering and finishing works
- Installation of bathrooms and kitchens
- Full decoration and finishes
- External works including driveways and garden landscaping
