Ealing Brick Bungalow

We have secured planning permission for a thoughtfully designed, contemporary three-bedroom bungalow at the rear of an existing property in Ealing. This single-storey home embraces sustainable living while enhancing the residential character of the area.

The L-shaped layout is centered around a private courtyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. A hipped green roof, adorned with biodiverse planting, contributes to ecological sustainability while improving insulation and rainwater retention. Air-source heat pumps and rooftop solar panels ensure the home achieves a remarkable 90% reduction in carbon emissions compared to standard building regulations.

Positioned on an underutilised plot, the bungalow addresses previous planning concerns with a sensitive and contextually appropriate design. The home aligns with established building lines, featuring a low brick and metal rail perimeter for security without compromising openness. The structure’s single-storey form minimizes its impact on neighboring properties, ensuring no loss of privacy or natural light.

Internally, the 80 sqm layout exceeds national space standards, offering a spacious open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area, along with three well-proportioned bedrooms. Sustainable materials, natural ventilation, and extensive daylighting create a comfortable and energy-efficient home.

This project exemplifies Satish Jassal Architects’ expertise in backland development, transforming neglected spaces into high-quality housing solutions. With its innovative yet context-sensitive design, this bungalow sets a benchmark for sustainable, modern living in Ealing.
