Located on the edge of Petersham’s town centre, Tindel sits within the B4 mixed use zone. The surrounding area is characterised by a mix of development types including one and two storey terraces and detached dwellings, residential flat buildings, shop top housing developments and other commercial developments. The development proposes a four storey mixed use building comprising a retail unit at ground floor level, basement parking and twelve residential units above. The building is designed with a ground floor active ‘podium’ level, above which sits a courtyard residential building consisting of three levels each. Within each component above the podium are 6 units, with each component connected via a central open gallery walkway to access the lift and open stairs. The communal open space (COS) is split between a ground floor rear area and two areas at podium level in a courtyard space between the two towers. This provides an attractive outlook for windows looking into the courtyard.
