Planning approval has been awarded for rear extensions and roof alterations on Ferry Rd, Barnes

The planning permission for the rear and roof extensions to a detached house were granted, despite objections from neighbours, as the borough of Richmond planning department saw that the merits of the proposals spoke for themselves. The extension and re-modelling of the existing house have been conducted in order order to improve both the accommodation, and the external appearance of the house.

Despite generous internal spaces, the property’s rear elevation and roof lacked symmetry and cohesion, which detracted from the overall appearance. The proposals addressed this to create a more attractive exterior, by resolving the various doglegs in the existing building and creating a harmonious whole.
