The houses
A village core, and red and yellow brick streets.
Hampstead grew from an 18th-century village of steep lanes and small squares, with mostly 19th-century streets of red and yellow brick houses around it. Many still keep their original windows, doors, front gardens and boundary walls.
Those are the things the conservation rules protect. So work here keeps the front as it is, matches what's there, and puts new space at the back or in the roof, where the rules allow.
Planning with Camden Council
Camden Council decides planning in Hampstead. Its conservation areas there include Hampstead, Redington/Frognal and Fitzjohns/Netherhall, and Hampstead is under an Article 4 direction too.
Inside them, lofts, side extensions and two-storey rear extensions need planning permission, and every basement in Camden needs planning permission.
We check whether your job needs permission before we price it, and if it does, we do the drawings and the application.

Questions
What people in Hampstead ask us.
Do I need planning permission for a loft in Hampstead?
Inside the Hampstead, Redington/Frognal and Fitzjohns/Netherhall conservation areas, yes. Lofts, side extensions and two-storey rear extensions all need permission there. We check your house and do the drawings and the application.
Can I have a garden room?
Usually, yes: an office or studio at the end of the garden. In a conservation area an outbuilding can need permission depending on where it goes, so we check that first.
Will the work change the front of my house?
We keep it as it is wherever we can. The front is what Hampstead's conservation areas protect, so new space usually goes at the back or in the roof.
