4D Planning's role

Advising client on planning feasibility for a large extension to a semi-detached house. Preparation of architectural drawings, preparation of Design and Access and Planning statement, submission of planning applications and liaison with the council.

 

4D Planning were instructed to establish the full potential of a large semi-detached property. 4D Planning conducted a site appraisal following site visits and consultations with the client. 4D Planning advised to convert the property into flats following a number of possible extensions to increase the habitable space.

A basement was proposed with a lightwell, a rear extension on ground floor and first floor levels, a roof terrace with obscured glazing to protect the neighbour’s privacy, and a large roof extension with dormers. 4D Planning advised to apply for the extensions first and once approved, a further Full Planning Application was submitted to Hackney Council for the conversion into three flats. Both applications were granted permission.

 

 

Extension and Conversion of a House into Three Flats in Hackney

At 4D Planning, we recently assisted a client in securing planning permission for the extension and conversion of a house into three flats in Hackney. This ambitious project involved carefully designing and extending the existing property to create three high-quality residential units while adhering to Hackney Council's planning policies and guidance.

The project included the construction of a well-integrated rear extension to maximise internal space and ensure the layout met modern living standards. Our team prepared detailed architectural planning drawings and planning statement, design and access statement and other support statements to address considerations such as privacy, light, space standards and amenity.
