Planning rules that apply in Kenilworth

In England an annexe that stays part of the household and connects to the house is assessed as an extension, but its size usually takes it beyond permitted development, so a householder application describing the ancillary use is the normal route.

In a conservation area, national park, National Landscape, the Broads or a World Heritage Site the permitted development limits are tighter (no side or two-storey extensions without an application). Listed homes need listed building consent, and if permitted development rights have been removed, any extension needs an application.

If the work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 m (sometimes 6 m) of a neighbour's building, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notice must be served before work starts: two months for work to a party wall, one month for new walls on the boundary and for excavations.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

What happens next

Site visits are free and there is no obligation. Where drawings are needed, the design stage is priced in writing before it starts.

  1. Free site visit

    A designer visits, takes measurements and photos, and discusses layouts, budget and timing with you.

  2. Design and approvals

    We produce the drawings and structural design, and manage the approvals so they are in place before work starts.

  3. Fixed written price

    You receive a written, itemised price and programme. Nothing starts until you are happy with it.

  4. Build and sign-off

    Work is carried out to the agreed programme, inspected by building control and signed off at the end.

Annexe extension questions answered

Who do I contract with for an annexe extension in Kenilworth?

Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which designs and manages the project and the build teams who carry it out.

Do I need building regulations approval in Kenilworth?

Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.

Can I see a price before committing to anything?

Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Kenilworth, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.

Will an annexe affect council tax?

It can. Some annexes are assessed separately for council tax, with discounts or exemptions in some cases when occupied by a relative. Check with the Valuation Office Agency (England and Wales), your local assessor (Scotland) or Land & Property Services (Northern Ireland).

Does an annexe extension need planning permission?

Usually yes, because of its size and the way it will be used. Councils check that it stays ancillary to the main house, so the application must describe the use clearly.
