Ingrave House, formerly the Bank of New York, is located within the Brentwood Town Centre Conservation Area, next to the Cathedral of Saint Mary and Saint Helen. The original three-storey office building was designed in the 1980s, with a quadrilateral footprint wrapped around a central courtyard, red brick façades and tiled mansard roof.
The practice gained consent using permitted development rights to convert the office into 72 apartments, ranging between studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom accommodation. Permission was also secured for a substantial rooftop extension, comprising 16 additional penthouses. During the conversion, the building was refurbished to a high standard throughout, with a new entrance canopy and lift core, green trapezoidal zinc cladding to the upper three storeys of the courtyard, and a new communal roof terrace providing views of the London skyline.
