Ground‑Floor Rear & Side Extension – Winterbrook Road, St Albans
Detailed Planning obtained planning permission for a ground‑floor rear and side extension to a period property on Winterbrook Road in the City of St Albans. The project replaces a tired conservatory with a contemporary wraparound extension that forms a generous kitchen and dining space. The new design incorporates Crittall‑style doors opening onto the garden, a flat roof with multiple rooflights to bathe the interior in natural light and a raised parapet wall with brickwork to match the existing dwelling. Our suite of location plans, block plans, proposed floor plans, elevations and sections demonstrated how the extension sits comfortably on the plot, respects neighbouring amenity and enhances the functionality of the home in line with local design guidance. With permission secured, the homeowners can now create a light‑filled open‑plan living area that improves the connection between house and garden while retaining the street’s character.
