What makes Ashtead Special?

Ashtead is a village in Surrey, which provides a perfect blend of rural appeal and modernisation with charming residential architecture. The balance between country calmness and accessibility to London attracts families and professionals, resulting in a distinctive residential landscape. But what really defines Ashtead’s architecture is its stock of period properties, although they range from Victorian to Edwardian and Georgian. The houses are often large, detached, or semi-detached with large gardens and traditional features such as red-brick facades, sash windows, and decorative woodwork. Meanwhile, the Victorian cottages and Edwardian villas inject character into the village. Ornate details and high ceilings reveal their historical roots.

Ashtead has numerous magnificent Georgian houses, most of which are still listed buildings. Indeed, the Georgian-style homes surrounding the heart and wider village surrounds are noted for their symmetrical proportions, and expansive grounds which speak to the history of being a retreat for the elite in London. In contrast, the housing developments at the outskirts of Ashtead are more modern and relate to the 20th century. These include spacious semi-detached and detached homes which accommodate the vast family setup. Most of these homes, though, are for functionality since they offer expanses of gardens, garages, and much more of the suburban facade.

Our Architectural services in Ashtead

Ashtead Planning Applications and Architectural Services

In terms of house extensions and new builds, Ashtead has a few key components that involve planning applications and architectural services, especially for houses located within conservation areas. Due to the unique nature of heritage sites, even the smallest property in the district would need special permission if its alteration is a special permission application, especially with some houses having protected zones. While some of the small changes automatically fall under permitted development, bigger projects such as extensions and conversions call for approvals, depending on scale, privacy, and aesthetics.

Even if your home isn’t in a designated conservation area, there’s still a chance the Ashtead planning department will impose restrictions which make creating your dream home all too hard. That’s where architectural firms like Extension Architecture come in. Permitted Development rights are meant to simplify the process for many homeowners, only to find that it’s not always a possibility when it doesn’t adhere to local regulations. Not every property is in a conservation area, but with us at Extension Architecture, you no matter what, you always get the most out of your home renovation, easy!

More about us

Home Extensions in Ashtead

The planning process around extending a house in Surrey isn’t easy, however, our extensive experience means we easily navigate its ways. Modern designs are the number one choice for many homeowners, but sometimes these clash with the council’s insistence on maintaining the character of the area. As we bring our team’s design expertise to the mix with the special architecture of your home, we can strike a balance between gorgeous modern aesthetics, and your planning guidelines.

One of our projects in Ashtead, Surrey started off as a single storey rear extension and porch extension. Yet, our director, Eugene Kim, and our architects found cause for their cramped, enclosed rooms. Both bedroom sizes and living spaces were an issue for the family. A chance to rethink the layout gave us open plan living areas and equal sized bedrooms, allowing comfort for each family member. Naturally lit, spacious rooms were introduced into the home, with the double storey cantilever becoming a feature of success of this project.
