Do you need planning permission for a bungalow rear extension in Newtown?
Here is how the rules in Wales apply to a bungalow rear extension in Newtown.
Welsh permitted development allows a single-storey rear extension of up to 4 metres in depth and 4 metres in height, subject to boundary and garden-coverage limits. There is no larger-extension prior approval scheme in Wales.
Conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict permitted development in Wales, and listed buildings need listed building consent. Before any drawing we look up the property's history with the council, because earlier extensions and removed rights change the answer.
What are homes in Newtown like to extend?
Older terraces near the centre and post-war semis further out are typical of Newtown. Sloping sites are common in Wales, so floor levels and retaining walls are designed at the start.

FAQ
Bungalow rear extension questions in Newtown
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 you match the brick or stone on my Newtown house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
Do I need to move out?
Rarely; the opening into the bungalow is made late in the build.
Do I need a party wall agreement?
In Wales, usually yes if the extension is on or near a shared boundary or close to a neighbour's foundations. We serve the notices.
Can I get a price without a visit?
Our online guide-price tool gives a range in a couple of minutes. A written price needs a survey.
Do you handle building control in Newtown?
Yes. We apply to the council or a registered approver under the Welsh regulations and hand over the completion certificate.
