Bungalow rear extension in Huntingdon
We plan and build rear extensions for bungalows for homeowners in Huntingdon. Single-storey rear extensions that keep everything on one level. Start with a free site visit, then a written price once the design is agreed.
Huntingdon and its postcode districts PE29 are part of our Cambridgeshire coverage. For Huntingdon bungalows we design the roof first, because the low eaves decide the height of the new room.

How much does a bungalow rear extension cost in Huntingdon?
Guide prices for a bungalow rear extension in Huntingdon start from our East of England rate of £1,960–£3,180 per square metre, including VAT. East of England prices run slightly above our West Midlands baseline; clay soils near trees are the main foundation variable.
| Size | Guide price inc VAT |
|---|---|
| 3 m wide × 4 m deep (12 m²) | £23,500–£38,000 |
| 4 m wide × 6 m deep (24 m²) | £47,000–£76,500 |
Your written price follows a measured survey and an agreed design, so it reflects your house, not an average.
Do you need planning permission for a bungalow rear extension in Huntingdon?
Whether your bungalow rear extension in Huntingdon needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.
English permitted development (Class A) allows a single-storey rear extension of 3 metres on a terraced or semi-detached house and 4 metres on a detached one, measured from the original house, with a maximum height of 4 metres and eaves of no more than 3 metres within 2 metres of a boundary.
England also has the larger home extension route: a single-storey rear extension of up to 6 metres on an attached house or 8 metres on a detached house, after prior approval from the council. The council notifies your neighbours and has 42 days to decide; the fee is £249 (£310 for applications made from 8 December 2026). The route is not available on designated land such as conservation areas.
Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development, prior approval or a planning application.
What are homes in Huntingdon like to extend?
Huntingdon mixes Victorian terraces with 1930s semis, so both side returns and full-width kitchen extensions suit houses here.
