Planning consent has been given to Inspired Homes for its £20m GDV residential scheme in Chertsey.

The 61-unit scheme on Bridge Road was approved by Runneymede Borough Council and is an extension to Bridge House, an early 2000s office building that recently received prior approval for conversion to 39 apartments, to provide a further 22 residential units.

Jeremy Beck, Development Director at Inspired Asset Management, said: “This planning consent almost doubles the value of our scheme paving the way for us to unlock development finance and start construction. Our proposals will refurbish and convert a contemporary Georgian building while grafting on a beautifully designed
new-build element.”

All apartments will be designed to a high specification, including hardwood flooring, designer kitchens and bathrooms with granite worktops and stone tiling, and home technology featuring NEST Smart thermostats, communal heating systems and superfast broadband.
