The Old Dispensary was the last empty building on the Millfields Estate. Set over three floor the building was a substantial property set within a listed landscape. Ercle worked closely with the existing building to convert the existing buildings into 13 flats as well as a bungalow with its own private garden.
The success of the conversion was the inhabitation of the roof space into three luxury apartments. The apartments were achieved through the modern zinc dormers that increased head height and provide natural daylight. The cost of the conversion was kept to a minimum by working with the existing roof structure, which allowed for the roof to stay in situ throughout the construction.
