GME PORTFOLIOS / DORSET & THE SOUTH COAST
I work with landowners, councils and development partners to identify residential opportunities, solve planning and title constraints, and move viable schemes towards delivery.
SELECTED WORK
My work spans land assembly, redesign, planning applications and appeals, restrictive covenants, and the practical steps that follow permission. These examples distinguish completed work from schemes at planning or delivery stage.
Architect's visualisationWAREHAM · PROPOSED SCHEME
A residential opportunity comprising seven townhouses and one detached home. The scheme work brings together site acquisition, design, planning and development appraisal in a conservation area setting.
Architect's 3D viewBOURNEMOUTH · PLANNING CONSENT
A redesign and planning process for a six-home scheme, with council land discussions, access, parking and delivery issues forming part of the wider site strategy.

These plans show three of 18 homes constructed in stages over six years. Earlier developers had made promises to residents but failed to deliver because of restrictive covenants held by the local authority and passed to the controlling housing association. Planning permission was achieved, and every restrictive covenant was successfully negotiated or overturned.
WIMBORNE · MULTIPLE PLOTS
A programme of infill opportunities involving options, planning, design changes, covenant issues and construction coordination. Individual plots have reached different stages, including completed homes and further schemes in progress.
POOLE · MULTIPLE PLOTS
Residential infill work where restrictive covenants were a central challenge. The schemes required planning and practical coordination to unlock their development potential.
WHAT I CAN HELP WITH
Early judgement matters: what can be built, what permission will take, and whether the numbers still make sense after access, conditions and build costs.
Identify overlooked plots and assess ownership, access, planning context and likely value.
Options or conditional purchases, design teams, applications, appeals and covenant strategy.
Bring together consultants, contractors, conditions and the route to construction or sale.
START A CONVERSATION
Tell me where it is, what you know about the site and what you would like to achieve. I am happy to have an initial conversation with landowners, councils and development partners.
