Built by Glossbrook, this project was listed as a ‘Top Development’ in the Premier Guarantee Excellence Awards 2014.

Challenge

The brief from the developer client was to enhance the value of the site through obtaining a new planning permission improving the design quality and layout of each flat. Originally, the site only had planning permission for 9 apartments. 

Solution

Completed in 2014, Harbour Reach, Haig Avenue is a development of 10 luxury residential units consisting of 7 apartments and 3 spectacular penthouses. The development occupies a magnificent and tranquil plot extending to over two acres and offers stunning views over Parkstone Golf Course and Poole Harbour beyond.

Harbour Reach was built by Glossbrook for the Harrison Group and became an award winner; Glossbrook won an outstanding achievement award as the development was listed as a ‘Top Development’ in the Premier Guarantee Excellence Awards 2014.

The structure of the development consists of a below ground concrete basement car park supporting a hybrid construction of loadbearing masonry and steelwork. Steel framing was provided along the rear elevation to provide support to the large sections of glazing.
