About the project
Architect: Karakusevic Carson Architects
Contract: JCT Design and Build 2011 edition
Contractor: Durkan Ltd
Employers agent: Philip Pank Partnership
Clerk of works: Philip Pank Partnership
Tenure and rents: General needs (20) and shared equity (18)
Construction cost: £8.5 million

Named after Enfield’s double gold medallist in the 2012 Olympics, Charlotte Dujardin, this project was a redevelopment of a former National Grid gas storage site. The scheme is made up of 38 new affordable council properties in total.
Dujardin Mews was a flagship project to set the quality benchmark for the borough. It was the first project to be delivered solely by the council and is a modern interpretation of a traditional London low rise, residential, terraced street using traditional construction and characteristic masonry features. It includes a mixture of spacious 1- and 2-bedroom flats, 2-bedroom maisonettes, 3- and 4-bedroom town houses, a play area and amenity space. 20 of the homes are council affordable rented and 18 were sold on a shared equity basis.
The homes were made available for tenants and leaseholders relocating from the Alma Estate, and allocated according to a Local Lettings Plan agreed with the local community.
Built to Code for Sustainable Homes level 4 (with 4 of the 2-storey terrace houses to level 5) it achieves floor areas above Greater London Authority standards (many of the homes are 10% larger). It also meets 100% Lifetime Homes standards and includes:
- rooftop courtyard gardens
- storm rainwater control methods
- green roofs
- solar PV panels
- excellent day lighting
- efficient MVHR ventilation
- high insulation standards
What's happened so far
