What makes Kingston Upon Thames Special?

Kingston upon Thames, one of the five Royal Boroughs in London, is the perfect destination for social residential purposes due to breathtaking sites and feel of ancient civilization. However, despite its architectural stock and tradition of modern practice the planning complexities of London are still high, particularly where the borough contains 26 conservation areas which themselves are home to about 7.4% of the borough’s population. These areas such as Coombe Hill, Grove Crescent, Claremont Road, etc. are thus safeguarded in that they reinstate its original look. In other words, that like any other development or alteration of any property, there is a need to respect the cultural account in the region.

The housing styles in Kingston are as follows,; Victorian and Edwardian architectures with classy designs and modern housing structures exist. Many of the conservation areas contain period properties with many detailed features and traditional character with planning restrictions for change. These rules might take a relatively long time to understand and can become a real headache for homeowners willing to build a new storey or repair and decorate their houses.

This is where the local architects come in handy. Thus architects have to do necessary background research, produce accurate planning application documents and work on discussions with Kingston’s local council when the architects have a good knowledge about the planning in Kingston. Their experience means that it would be very difficult for any proposed changes not to fit with the historical context of the area, boosting the chances of approval. Cooperating with professional architects in Kingston helps to solve it and also guarantees that the architectural design of your house will not only correspond to traditions of the borough, but also will increase comfort and esthetic look of the building.

Kingston Upon Thames Planning Applications and Architectural Services

Currently, many homeowners in Kingston are opting to expand their properties, whether by adding loft extensions, building additional floors, or undertaking major refurbishments. The goal is often to boost their home’s value while improving everyday comfort, rather than going through the hassle of purchasing a new property. However, planning permissions in Kingston can be tricky to navigate, particularly since the borough includes 26 conservation areas dedicated to preserving its distinctive architectural character.

Even if your home isn’t in a designated conservation area, the Kingston planning department can still impose restrictions, making it challenging to bring your dream home to life. This is where experienced architectural firms like Extension Architecture come in. Many homeowners hope to use Permitted Development rights for a simpler process, only to discover that it’s not always feasible due to local regulations. At Extension Architecture, we ensure you get the most out of your home renovation, helping you navigate Kingston’s planning complexities with ease, regardless of whether your property is in a conservation area or not.

More about us

House Extensions and Renovation

In November 2022, Extension Architecture was delighted to collaborate with a high-end luxury client on an exceptional project. Their vision included a sophisticated yet striking single-storey rear extension, a double-storey side extension, the addition of an elegant garage, and a refined pool house. Along with the enhancement of the surrounding landscape, these additions brought nearly 400 square metres of new space to the existing property.

While the project currently is under construction, the comprehensive brief required extensive planning submissions, including arboriculture reports and a detailed design and access statement to justify the design in the conservation area of Coombe Hill. Our experience in navigating these complex requirements of the council, combined with the pleasure of working with such wonderful clients who came with a well-detailed brief, has further honed our expertise in securing approvals.

This project not only expanded our knowledge about the area of Kingston but also reinforced our commitment to delivering exceptional architectural solutions tailored to our clients’ visions.
