Plan to convert former stables into offices and apartments

Plans have been submitted for a development of two offices and seven apartments on Wilmslow Road.

Tower Garage are proposing to demolish an existing single storey extension and replace it with 2.5 storey extension along with changing the use of the existing building from storage to offices and apartments, together with 26 car parking spaces.

Stephen Higham said "We are proposing to convert the old coaching station (plus new extension) into aproximately 300sq of high quality air conditioned office space plus the following dwellings for rental, some of which will be fully serviced - one mews house on 3 floors with pation, one 3 bed, two 2 bed and three 1 bed appartments."

He added "Where possible old roof trusses will be kept and made a feature off plus cheshire brick interior walls. See attached drawings."

The building which is to be converted was originally stables and has been used by Tower Garage as a garage/workshop since 1919. The attached building, which is to be demolished so the new extension can be constructed, was built in the 1920s and has been used as a showroom, offices, car valeting workshop and storage.

Aldeli, which is registered as a Grade 2 listed building, will remain untouched as will the garage, petrol station shop and car wash.

Access to the site will be from Davey Lane with egress onto Wilmslow Road. A new pedestrian access will also be provided from Wilmslow Road.

The plans can be viewed on the Cheshire East Council website by searching for planning reference 17/1803M. The last date for submitting comments is 11th May and a decision is expected by 30th May.
