The kitchen is the heart of the home—you use it every day, it becomes the soul of family activity and the pulse by which you live and entertain. It is for this reason several clients come to us wanting single-storey rear extensions to help them maximize the potential of their spaces. The Potential of a Single-Storey Rear Extension Single-Storey rear extensions come in a range of accommodation types and forms. Common features are kitchens and utility rooms though we do cater to a range of living arrangements to maximize your home in line with your design taste and your personal preference.
The Potential of a Wrap-Around Extension
Another common and easy approach to maximize space on your ground floor for your kitchen and utility needs is to extend on the side a little, using up your neglected garage or overlooked space to the side of your house to further enhance the quality of your home. In some cases, this can even help accommodate a larger living area.
Kitchen Extension: Planning Considerations
With a single-storey rear extension or a wrap-around extension, planning consent from your council is necessary. This may sound intimidating but our planning team can make the stress of surveying your home, doing the drawings, submitting the planning applications and liaising with the council a simple and relaxed step towards your dream home.
