Kitchen Extensions in Cheshunt
A large Hertfordshire town with excellent transport links to London. Cheshunt has a lot of 1930s and post-war housing, including many semi-detached homes, running up to the border with Waltham Cross and the Lea Valley.
Interwar houses often have a separate kitchen at the back, which a rear extension turns into an open kitchen-diner. Interwar semis and detached houses frequently have hipped roofs and reasonable ridge heights, which gives a surveyor more design options than a typical modern roof. We offer a free survey and a clear written quote from the start.
Planning and approvals for kitchen extensions in Cheshunt
Planning applications are decided by Broxbourne Borough Council, and Green Belt land lies close to the edge of the built-up area. Single-storey rear kitchen extensions can often be built under permitted development within the depth and height limits, while larger or side extensions may need permission.
