‘Traditional’ flats planned for Strathern Road site in Broughty Ferry

A new development containing nine luxury flats is planned for a prime site in Broughty Ferry.

Dundee architect Jon Frullani has lodged a planning application with the city council to demolish the existing house, Winnocks, at the site, which sits on the corner of Strathern Road and Gardyne Road.

Mr Frullani said the flats would be two-bedroom, 100 sq metre properties situated within an ‘arts and crafts’ style building.

“It’s a very traditional design, very much in keeping with the area and also of the type that will be in tune with the community council,” he said.

“We did think about retaining the existing construction and renovating it into flats but following discussions with the planners and our client we felt it was more appropriate to start afresh,” he added.

“The development is also set back to the rear of the site, which will allow us to retain the majority of the existing trees.

“Our client is hoping that if permission is given the work would start in the spring or summer.”
