Our Award - The UDIA Judges Comments
"Longyard Estate Is Challenging
The Traditional Built Form.
The Longyard Estate has developed over a number of years as
a vibrant new place on the edge of Tamworth. Focused around a
golf course, the housing estate accommodates all residents' needs
with attention to detail in small parks, public art and feature
street planting which create a sense of place.
The developer has successfully integrated a number of major
support facilities, including a regional sporting complex and
entertainment centre, which provides excellent facilities for
residents without intruding on the lifestyle options.
The development is
challenging the traditional built form and succeeding in providing
a diverse range of homes in keeping with the more traditional
Tamworth architecture but responding to modern layouts, sustainability
and place."
