Crown Lane

Morden, South London

Harp & Harp secured planning consent in summer 2024 for eight new homes on a backland site in Morden, seconds from Morden tube station. The scheme comprises a block of four apartments and a terrace of four courtyard mews houses, reached from a new landscaped pedestrian space.

The site is heavily constrained and overlooked from every side. The design answers those constraints with a creative, unconventional approach that respects its neighbours while delivering joyful, high-quality homes: roof gardens, vaulted interiors and high sustainability standards throughout. The ambition is an exemplar for how to develop challenging infill sites in London’s outer boroughs.

Courtyard mews houses in white brick, with circular and arched windows and planted front thresholds
Vaulted open-plan living space with rooflights, globe pendants and a yellow chevron-panelled door
The four-apartment block in white brick, with yellow window reveals and a yellow entrance canopy.
