The Brambles development on a former paddock at the end of Brick House lane has yielded 12 homes for General Needs Rent in the idyllic village of Boreham on the outskirts of Chelmsford, Essex.  The homes were designed by Living Architects and built by Allenbuild SE for Genesis Housing Group.

 

The scheme consists of 12 homes; 4 houses, 4 maisonettes and 4 flats.  The village of Boreham is only a few miles from the centre of Chelmsford and has great links to London and the rest of Essex and East Anglia due to the nearby A12.  Each property has a designated parking bay and secure private garden to the rear. 

 

The properties use the ‘Whole House’ ventilation system to circulate air throughout the house and removing the need to open windows. 

 

Genesis Housing Group housing group manage the properties and took delivery of the homes in June 2009.
