Do you need planning permission for a bungalow rear extension in Kingsteignton?
Planning for a bungalow rear extension in Kingsteignton follows the English householder rules.
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.
If 3 or 4 metres is not enough, England's prior approval route allows 6 metres on a terraced or semi-detached house and 8 metres on a detached house for a single-storey rear extension. Neighbours are consulted, the council decides within 42 days, and the fee is £249, rising to £310 from 8 December 2026.
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 Kingsteignton like to extend?
Stone-built and rendered houses are common around Kingsteignton, so matching the walling is a design decision in its own right: natural stone, reconstituted stone or a render finish across old and new.

FAQ
Bungalow rear extension questions in Kingsteignton
Who will build my extension?
Vetted building teams working under contract to us. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd for the design and the build.
Can I live at home while the extension is built?
Usually yes. Most of the work is outside until the back wall is opened near the end, and that stage is screened off.
Do I need to move out?
Rarely; the opening into the bungalow is made late in the build.
Do you handle building control in Kingsteignton?
Yes. We apply to the council or a registered building control approver and hand over the completion certificate.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Kingsteignton house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
What postcode areas do you cover around Kingsteignton?
