LP14 Dwelling Size Mix
Developments should provide the following mix of dwelling sizes for social/London affordable rent tenures:
| Bedrooms / dwelling size | 1 bed | 2 beds | 3+ beds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Preferred dwelling mix – social/London affordable rent | 30-34% | 30-34% | 33-36% |
| Preferred dwelling mix – intermediate | Lower % than 2 bed | Higher % than 1 bed | 15-25% |
| Preferred dwelling mix - market | Lower % than 2 bed | Higher % than 1 bed | 33% |
The Council will seek a higher proportion of 4+ bed dwellings in the Stamford Hill AAP area across all tenures. The Stamford Hill AAP will provide further guidance on this.
The Council will consider variations to the dwelling size mix sought if this can be justified based on the tenures and type of housing proposed, site location, area’s characteristics, design constraints, scheme viability; and where shared ownership is proposed, the ability of potential occupiers to afford the homes proposed.
