Do you need planning permission for a two-storey rear extension in Kirkby in Ashfield?
Whether your two-storey rear extension in Kirkby in Ashfield needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.
England's rules allow a rear extension of more than one storey without an application only when it is no deeper than 3 metres and at least 7 metres from the boundary opposite the rear wall, and never on designated land. Most two-storey schemes need householder planning permission.
Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent. We check your house's planning history and any conservation area before drawing, so the route is clear before you spend on plans.
What are homes in Kirkby in Ashfield like to extend?
Red-brick terraces and semis are typical of Kirkby in Ashfield. Coal-mining legacy areas in parts of the East Midlands can need a Coal Authority check before foundations are designed.
