Home Extensions in Chipping Campden

Home Extensions in Chipping Campden need careful thought from the outset, as much of the town is a conservation area and many of its houses are listed. The honey-coloured limestone along the curving High Street sets its character. Chipping Campden is about 17 miles north-east of our base in Cheltenham.

Because so much of Chipping Campden is a conservation area, permitted development rights are narrower here, and a listed house needs listed building consent for an extension. Those rights, which let many single-storey rear extensions go ahead within size limits without a full planning application, may not stretch as far for your property, so find out its status before plans develop. Whatever consents apply, the extension has to meet the Building Regulations, with building control checking the foundations, drainage, structure and insulation. The photo shows stone-coloured floor tiles running through a hallway from our own work, and the reviewer beside it described the service as professional, friendly and helpful.

“Rousit did an excellent job of painting the outside window frames of my house. He was very professional, friendly and helpful. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a good job done, anytime.”

Questions about home extensions in Chipping Campden

Our house is in the conservation area. Can we still use permitted development?

Possibly, but permitted development rights are more limited in conservation areas, and much of Chipping Campden is a conservation area. Check what applies to your house before a design is fixed.

Can the extension be part of a wider refurbishment?

Yes. An extension can be planned with refurbishment, kitchen and bathroom work, and we coordinate the trades across all of it.
