Lavington is denser than Karen and greener than Kilimani — townhouses and family homes on medium plots where the neighbours are close enough to matter.
Compact layouts that still work
A four-person cabin with a plunge and a bench fits comfortably in about twelve square metres if it is laid out along a boundary wall rather than sitting in the middle of the garden. We have drawings already dimensioned for the plot sizes that repeat here.
Noise is the constraint
Close neighbours make a badly sited chiller the one complaint we hear in this neighbourhood. Plant goes on the house side, behind planting, with the grille facing inward, and we give a noise figure in the quote.
Townhouse complications
In gated townhouse schemes, external works need the management company's approval and anything involving water near a party wall needs a structural opinion. We prepare both.
Questions
Lavington: what people ask
Will the neighbours hear it?
Not if the plant is sited properly. We give a noise figure and place the unit on the house side behind planting.
Will it fit in a townhouse garden?
Usually, laid out along the boundary rather than in the middle. About 12 m² does it.
