Borrowash House is an imposing three storey building of Georgian/Victorian appearance. It provides in excess of 10,000sq. ft of both commercial and residential accommodation within stunning grounds of approximately 2.5 acres.
The property has an interesting history having been formerly known as ‘The Hollies’ and was built in the 1800’s as the Towle Family residence. Post 1935 the ownership, and use of the property changed hands on several occasions with the Catholic Church and Derbyshire County Council all being custodians of the property.
Now it is well and truly residential. Its current owner has commissioned us to transform the building into the home of their dreams for their large family to enjoy. This has comprised of a total re-configuration of the main house with an extension, balcony and internal modifications aesthetically developing the existing period features such as the quoins, stained glass and elegant curved staircase.
Watch out for annexe conversion on the same site coming soon!
EDS have been working with the owner of this Grade ll listed building in Derby City Centre. The exciting proposal that has gained planning permission and listed building consent, is for a new Indonesian Restaurant – opening soon. Our change of use expertise is strong, particularly in the hospitality sector, and with this project we are taking the client through to the launch of the restaurant with our catering consultancy service – something that makes us a unique company for any bar/restaurant/café proposals. Watch this space for further news on this great development.
We also await the approval of outline planning for 2 houses on this Derby plot. We work along side developers to ensure that housing schemes are supported, and viable.
A busy month with various residential projects going through the planning process.
We have developed schemes for a single storey rear extension to a family home in Darley Dale, a double storey rear extension to a flat in Leicester, as well as a detached double garage to a property on Duffield Road, Derby.
Our diary is always busy with these types of householder development projects, and the EDS team can quickly turn your ideas into reality as we guide you through the design and planning process.
Based on our solid reputation after nearing ten years in business our order book is generally solid with a varied type of residential work. At the beginning of 2022 we have started to compliment it with other commercial schemes.
We’ve recently completed a hotel in the peak district, a glamping site in wooded area at Alderwasley and a Community Hall in Woodhouse Eaves.
Alongside this we have heritage projects at Borrowash House and a spectacular old Grade 2 listed hall in Winthorpe were we have been commissioned to remodel the main building, design a swimming pool enclosure with spa area and a barn conversion. This property also contains a period orangery and vegetable garden and outdoor tennis courts. The site is being developed with a view to it being used as an Airbnb for large parties with onsite living quarters for the managers. We may even use our glamping expertise in part of its grounds.
