Single Storey Rear Extension
Enfield, London

Project Overview

Studio RUUM was appointed to prepare the planning application for a single-storey rear extension, helping the homeowners create a brighter, more spacious living environment that better suited their family's lifestyle.

The proposal focused on extending the ground floor to create an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area while improving the connection between the home and the garden.

The Challenge

The existing layout felt restricted and no longer met the family's changing needs. The extension needed to maximise internal living space while respecting local planning policies, neighbouring properties and the character of the existing house.

Careful consideration was also required to ensure the proposal remained proportionate and sympathetic to the surrounding residential area.

Our Planning Solution

Studio RUUM developed a carefully considered design that enhanced the functionality of the home while remaining compliant with local planning guidance.

We prepared the existing and proposed planning drawings, developed the design through close collaboration with the client and managed the planning application process from submission through to determination.

Outcome

The proposal successfully transformed the property's ground floor by creating a larger, more functional living space with improved natural light and stronger connections to the garden.
