Under new permitted development rules, homeowners in terraced and semi-detached homes will be able to put single story extensions of up to 6 metres at the rear of their properties without needing to obtain planning permission. Those in detached homes will be able to extend by up to 8 metres (if detached) or up to 6m (if terraced or semi detached).

Part Q Permitted Development
Planning law has recently changed to allow the conversion of agricultural buildings to residential dwellings under permitted development legislation. This wonderfully converted barn is an example of what can be done within the strict guidelines of this legislation. A former cattle barn, this building is now a stunning residential home.

The new barns are a composition of modern larch timber cladding, glass and local granite walling. The whole structure is roofed in standing seam zinc. The timber framed construction is super insulated, and heated with air source heat pumps and underfloor heating.
Not every house extension in England needs a full planning application. Some proposals can fall within Permitted Development rights, provided the property and design meet the relevant limits and conditions. This ADS guide explains what homeowners should check before assuming an extension is permitted, including the original house, previous additions, size, position and planning restrictions.
