Clapham house extension

Architecture for London has completed detailed design for a Clapham house extension and loft conversion, in the Borough of Lambeth

The house extension is for a property located on Caldervale Road, Clapham. The house will also be refurbished to provide a large kitchen and dining room.

Architecture for London is an RIBA Chartered Practice. View our project portfolio, or if you would like to discuss improvements to your property please contact us.

A five-metre long roof light running the full length of the original rear outrigger provides a bright space in the extension and brings natural light into the rear reception room. A new kitchen runs the length of the extension, with a breakfast bar in the centre of the space, and full width sliding aluminium framed doors lead to the garden. A ground floor WC is created under the staircase.

The loft conversion works fell under permitted development, so a lawful development certificate was obtained from Lambeth in addition to the planning consent for the rear extension.

Caldervale Road SW4 is a wide, tree-lined street, close to Abbeville Village and the green spaces of Clapham Common. The road is uniform with late Victorian terraces, each having two storey bay windows.
