How does a drawing package differ street by street across EN2?

Roof pitch, wall build-up and plot depth change every few EN2 streets, and each one changes what a drawing package can achieve at that address.

How do conservation areas and Article 4 affect a drawing package in EN2?

EN2 (Enfield / Forty Hill) conservation designations: there are 22 across Enfield Council, Enfield Town, Gentleman's Row, Winchmore Hill among them. Designation costs a EN2 (Enfield / Forty Hill) owner the permitted-development route: a drawing package then needs a £548 householder application over 8 weeks, in place of the £249 prior approval route that takes 6 weeks. Forty Hill is the EN2 (Enfield / Forty Hill) designation that most often changes a drawing package design.

Article 4 and your EN2 (Enfield / Forty Hill) drawing package: Enfield Council has made no borough-wide direction, so permitted development for a drawing package in EN2 (Enfield / Forty Hill) generally survives outside EN2 (Enfield / Forty Hill) conservation areas and listed curtilages. A Lawful Development Certificate at £274 is how a EN2 owner records that a drawing package was lawful.

EN2 (Enfield / Forty Hill) housing stock: Edwardian villas in Palmers Green and Winchmore Hill; 1930s semi-detached in Southgate; Victorian terraces in Edmonton; Metropolitan Green Belt north of the borough. Outer north London; Metropolitan Green Belt affects north; generally permissive elsewhere. Read that before choosing a drawing package route in EN2 (Enfield / Forty Hill) — construction, not postcode, sets what is achievable. Enfield Council charges £548 for a householder application and has 8 weeks to determine it.
