Do newer houses in Bishopdown have PD rights?

Some newer developments have conditions removing PD rights or restrictive covenants limiting changes. Check the original planning permission for your property. If PD has been removed, you will need a full planning application for any extension.

What types of extensions suit Bishopdown houses?

Rear extensions for kitchen-diners and single storey side extensions are the most common. Some properties also benefit from loft conversions, though modern roof trusses may require structural modification. We assess feasibility during the design phase.
