Do you need planning permission for a terraced house rear extension in Charlton Kings?
Here is how the rules in England apply to a terraced house rear extension in Charlton Kings.
Under England's householder permitted development rules you can usually add 3 metres at the back of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, without a planning application, as long as the extension stays under 4 metres high and its eaves stay under 3 metres where it is within 2 metres of a boundary.
Because rear extensions often sit on or near the boundary, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 usually applies in England. Notices go out one or two months before work depending on the type of work, and a surveyor's award is only needed if a neighbour does not consent.
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 Charlton Kings like to extend?
Stone-built and rendered houses are common around Charlton Kings, 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
Terraced house rear extension questions in Charlton Kings
How much does a terraced house rear extension cost in Charlton Kings?
As a guide, £2,130–£3,430 per square metre including VAT for a standard specification. For example, 3 m wide × 4.5 m deep (13.5 m²): about £29,000–£46,500 at that rate. Your written price follows the survey.
Can you match the brick or stone on my Charlton Kings house?
We source the closest match and show you samples before ordering; reclaimed materials are often the best match on older houses.
Can you build without side access?
Yes. Materials come through the house in protected runs or over the roof by crane on tight sites.
Do I need a party wall agreement?
In England, usually yes if the extension is on or near a shared boundary or the foundations are close to a neighbour's building. We serve the notices.
Will I need a structural engineer?
Yes for the beam over the new opening and usually the foundations; we arrange them and their calculations go to building control.
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.
