Planning Approval to Extend and Renovate Building of Townscape Merit in Twickenham

Dyer Grimes Architecture has obtained planning approval and conservation area consent to renovate and extend a four storey detached house and Building of Townscape Merit.

Despite the planned extension being very modern in design, our experience in blending old and new in protected buildings – including our award-winning works on a Grade II listed Georgian townhouse – convinced Richmond upon Thames planning department that our design would be sympathetic and subordinate to the original structure.

The extension will provide a modest increase in floor area, with the primary benefits of the project coming from the reconfiguration of the internal space to allow for a more flexible and current style of living. Highlights include a new contemporary staircase linking all floors and a brand new garden swimming pool.
