Planning approval and listed building consent have been secured for significant works to a Grade II listed property on Castelnau, Richmond

Alex Tart Architects have succeeded in securing listed building and planning consents for a sizeable full width contemporary rear extension and internal remodelling of a Grade II listed house on Castelnau, Barnes in the London Borough of Richmond. The work includes a roof extension and an additional floor over the coach house (to the side of the property) and also a rear lower ground floor extension. Our extensive experience on listed buildings and in Richmond’s conservation area, has been pivotal in securing the substantial alterations in a single application.

We adopted a particularly sensitive approach to the design within the context of the property’s Grade II listing and wider Castelnau Conservation Area. The design maintained a clear distinction between the traditional façade and new contemporary extension. This led to a smooth planning process without issue.

The main part of the house will be renovated to provide the necessities of a 21st century family home, whilst also ensuring that key period features of architectural merit are retained.
