Erection of a two storey side, single storey rear and front extensions, and a rear dormer approved by Croydon

Case Study: Securing Planning Permission for a Two-Storey Side Extension, Single-Storey Rear Extension, Front Extension, and Rear Dormer

At 4D Planning, we successfully secured planning permission for a residential development that involved multiple extensions to an existing property. The proposed changes included a two-storey side extension, single-storey rear extension, single-storey front extension, and the addition of a rear dormer to provide extra space for the homeowners. This project showcases our expertise in coordinating complex planning applications and navigating local planning policies effectively.

Maximising Space Without Compromising the Property’s Character

The aim of this project was to provide more living space while maintaining the overall aesthetic and character of the property. The two-storey side extension added significant additional living space, while the single-storey rear extension expanded the ground floor for an improved layout. The front extension improved the entrance area, creating a welcoming and functional entrance to the home, while the rear dormer maximised the use of attic space by converting it into additional living accommodation.

By thoughtfully designing each extension, we ensured that the modifications complemented the original property, meeting all necessary planning guidelines and building regulations. This was key to securing approval from the local council, who were satisfied that the project would have minimal impact on neighbouring properties.

The Importance of Expert Planning Advice

As with all complex planning applications, the success of this development hinged on expert guidance throughout the process. Our team of experienced planning permission consultants worked closely with the homeowner to design a proposal that met both their needs and the requirements of the local planning authority. From managing the detailed design to submitting the planning application to Croydon Council, 4D Planning ensured the process ran smoothly and efficiently.

Through a combination of clear communication, knowledge of local planning policies and planning guidance, and a professional approach, we helped the client achieve their vision for their home.

This case study demonstrates the benefits of engaging with a professional planning consultancy to guide you through the intricacies of planning permission and ensure the successful outcome of your project.
