We are pleased to announce the successful grant of planning permission for the comprehensive conversion and redevelopment of a dwelling house in Hackney. This approval, secured through our proactive and collaborative dialogue with the council, encompasses the transformation of the existing property into five high-quality flats, including three two-bedroom units, one three-bedroom unit, and one four-bedroom unit. The permission also allows for significant architectural enhancements, including the excavation of a lower ground floor level, the erection of part single-storey and part two-storey rear extensions, the creation of a rear terrace with glazed balustrades, and carefully designed dormer extensions to the main rear roof.

This development offers a number of key benefits. Internally, the excavation works provide additional usable space at lower ground floor level, complemented by a new patio area and improved light wells, enhancing both functionality and natural light. Externally, the project modernises the property’s appearance while respecting the character of the surrounding Hackney context. The creation of cycle and refuse storage facilities promotes sustainable living, while the thoughtful elevational alterations enhance the building’s overall aesthetic and market appeal. Collectively, these changes maximise the site’s potential and create a highly desirable residential offering suitable for a range of occupants.

For property owners and developers, this planning success demonstrates the value of working with a knowledgeable and experienced planning consultancy. Our team guided the project through the planning process, maintaining constructive engagement with Hackney Council and ensuring all design and regulatory considerations were met. Whether you are considering conversions, extensions, or more complex redevelopment schemes, our expertise can help navigate the planning system efficiently and effectively, unlocking the full potential of your property.
