Covering West Molesey

We cover West Molesey and the postcode districts KT8, KT12, TW16. The same team covers East Molesey (1 mile), Sunbury-on-Thames (2 miles), Walton-on-Thames (2 miles), Esher (2 miles), all within easy reach.

For homes towards Greater London, Hampton is around 1 mile away. The South East has a broad mix of 1930s semis, post-war estates, newer developments and period cottages, and many houses have enough garden for a generous rear extension.

What is included

  • Planning application describing ancillary use
  • Design for accessibility: level thresholds, wider doors, walk-in shower
  • Separate or shared heating and hot water
  • Kitchenette, shower room and bedroom finish
  • Fire separation and alarms to building regulations

Accessibility is cheaper to design in than to retrofit. Level access, a 900 mm door width, a level-access shower and space to turn a wheelchair can all be planned into the footprint for little extra cost.

Do I need planning permission in West Molesey?

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.

Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.

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).
