Planning permission drawings, internal reconfigurations, and building regulations for Nine Elms' new-build apartments and the wider regeneration area. MCIAT chartered, Wandsworth planning expertise built in.
Nine Elms sits in the SW8 postcode within the London Borough of Wandsworth. The area has been transformed over the past decade by the Nine Elms Vauxhall Opportunity Area — Battersea Power Station conversion, the US Embassy, and multiple high-rise residential developments.
New-build apartments: The majority of Nine Elms residential stock is new-build. Internal reconfigurations — removing walls, adding ensuites, creating open-plan spaces — require freeholder consent and Building Regulations approval. Some works may need planning permission.
Battersea Power Station: The converted Power Station and surrounding Circus West Village include substantial residential. Apartments within the Grade II* listed Power Station building have particular Listed Building Consent requirements.
Estate management: Most Nine Elms developments have active estate management companies with their own design codes. Internal works typically need estate consent alongside any statutory applications.
Wandsworth basement policy: Ground floor apartments with garden terraces may have scope for basement works; subject to Wandsworth's basement policy and structural constraints.
