Permitted Development Loft

Ben and Hannah’s development of a mid-terrace property is nearing completion in West Norwood. The loft and ground floor rear extension were both approved under Permitted Development.

Externally the loft conversion is complete – we have used London Stock brickwork on the flank walls to match existing detailing; slate tiles to the dormer elevation; concealed box gutters behind aluminium fascia’s top and bottom of the dormer to simplify the elevation; and bespoke aluminium reveal trims to frame the new windows and create a clean finish between the tile edges and associated weatherproofing. The same RAL colour was used for the windows/doors throughout as well as all the additional aluminium trims for continuity.

We are pretty pleased with this loft conversion as it shows that without considerably more money, but with the right design detailing, loft conversions built under permitted development can be very attractive.
