JJ Rhatigan will commence full-scale construction following the completion of initial groundworks. The development will also feature the restoration of the historic Twyford Abbey building into 30 new homes, in partnership with Picture Property Developments, preserving its architectural heritage.
RIBA Stirling Prize-winning architect Allford Hall Monaghan Morris (AHMM) designed the low-rise development, which prioritizes sustainability and heritage. The project will incorporate renewable energy through rooftop photovoltaic panels and Air Source Heat Pumps for heating and hot water, reducing CO2 emissions. The Abbey's 1.2-acre South Lawn will also be reopened for public use.
