We are pleased to confirm that planning permission has been granted for the construction of a rear dormer with a rear outrigger dormer at a residential property in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. This approval was secured through early engagement and ongoing dialogue with the council, ensuring the proposal aligned with local planning policies and respected the character of the surrounding area. By addressing potential concerns at an early stage, we were able to present a well-considered and policy compliant scheme that gained officer support
Rear and outrigger dormer extensions can be particularly sensitive in Greenwich, where design quality, neighbour amenity and visual impact are closely scrutinised. Through careful negotiation with the council, the design was refined to achieve and appropriate scale, massing and appearance, while maintaining privacy and minimising overlooking and overshadowing impacts. Our collaborative approach ensured that the council’s requirements were fully understood and addressed, resulting in a smooth and successful determination
The approved dormers will create valuable additional living space within the existing roof, allowing the property to accommodate and extra bedroom and improved internal layout without extending the building footprint. This represents a cost affective way to maximise the use of the property, enhance day to day living, and deliver a strong uplift in usability and market value, all while remaining sensitive to the surrounding residential context
This approval demonstrates our ability to guide homeowners and developers through the planning process with confidence. By combining strong planning knowledge, clear communication, and a constructive relationship with local authorities, we consistently secure permissions that others may struggle to achieve.
