Project Description:
Harrow Mews is a design-led scheme of new homes located within the mature grounds of Harrow House, a protected structure. Phase one contains a terrace of three two-bedroom homes and a detached 4/5 bedroom dwelling, all two storey. Upper rooms open onto large private south-facing terraces and bedrooms have direct access to large rear gardens which avail of existing mature planting. Dwellings can accommodate a range of occupancy types with provision for a future internal lift for downsizers as required. The overall density is 43 dwellings per hectare.
The project has been designed to the “Passive Plus” standard with an emphasis on comfort, quality and energy efficiency. Embodied carbon is reduced by using low-carbon blockwork, GGBS cement and FSC certified timber throughout. Large roof-mounted photovoltaic arrays are provided for each dwelling.
A second phase for a further four dwellings received permission last year and construction is due to commence in April 2026. This phase will contain a mix of two and three bedroom dwellings in a similar arrangement.
This project is an evolution of an earlier contemporary project, Cove Mews, a compact mews dwelling completed in Dublin in 2020 which was certified to the passive plus standard.
