Approved in conservation area by Hackney Council in 16 weeks. Fixed fee £1,575.
A family in De Beauvoir Town approached us for mansard roof extension on a georgian villas and terraces property. Constraints: respecting streetscape rhythm typical of Hackney, maintaining rear garden depth, and meeting Hackney Council's design expectations for the conservation context (29 conservation areas borough-wide).
Measured survey week 1. Three design iterations balancing internal layout against external massing visible from neighbours. Two scheme massings tested against Hackney Council's adopted design guidance. Chosen scheme matched existing roof pitch, used matching brick, set the new opening back from the eaves.
Submitted to Hackney Council via the Planning Portal. With Article 4 in force in Hackney, we confirmed our scheme retained the necessary permissions before submission. Officer comments minor, addressed in 5 days. Approved in conservation area.
