our vision
The Lidsing Garden Community can offer a unique and collaborative approach to deliver the vision, because of one main factor, which is that all of the development land is within the single ownership of the Attwood family.
As a result, there can be a direct partnership between the landowner and the master planners, because direct negotiation between the landowners advisory team and the Local Planning Authority in exploring possibilities and testing options opens up greater design possibilities and a truly creative approach for planning new ways of living that reflect input from a wider range of stakeholders.
Make it stand out.
