House Extension Drawings in Osterley TW7
Fixed-fee, MCIAT-chartered house extension drawings for Osterley (TW7) homeowners — London Borough of Hounslow validation and local constraints handled from the start.
Osterley is a green, spacious interwar suburb wrapped around Osterley Park, so the houses here are larger than the west-Hounslow average and the projects follow suit: wide rear extensions, two-storey side additions and generous loft conversions on the semis and detached homes along Jersey Road and Ellington Road. Bigger footprints mean many schemes go past permitted-development volume and land as full householder applications.
Because so much of the district sits within or beside the Osterley Park and Spring Grove conservation areas — and under mature, often protected street trees — we design to Hounslow Council's higher bar here, keeping the scale subordinate, matching brick and fenestration, and coordinating with an arboricultural approach where roots and TPOs affect the foundations.
Planning in Osterley (TW7): what to know before you apply
No published householder Article 4 direction applies in Osterley, but the Osterley Park and Spring Grove conservation areas, the National Trust parkland setting and Tree Preservation Orders on mature street trees all tighten how extension scale, materials and foundations are assessed.
Typical Osterley housing stock
Osterley is a leafy 1920s and 30s suburb of substantial semi-detached and detached houses on generous, tree-lined plots around Osterley Park. Roads like Jersey Road and Ellington Road carry larger family homes that suit full-width rear extensions, two-storey side additions and considered loft conversions.

House Extension Drawings for Osterley (TW7) homes: the package and the process
Every house extension drawings we prepare for an Osterley property is drawn to London Borough of Hounslow’s validation standards and tuned to the TW7 constraints above. Here is what the drawing package covers and how the process runs from first survey to approval.
A well-drawn extension adds space and value while sailing through the council; a poorly-drawn one triggers objections and refusals. DrawingsDirect draws rear, side-return, wraparound, double-storey and basement extensions for London homes — sized to your borough's tolerances, with daylight and neighbour impact considered before the planners raise them.
Which extension types do you draw?
Every London extension is shaped by the plot, the neighbours and the borough's design guidance. We draw them all.
Rear extension
A single-storey rear extension is often permitted development within depth limits — ideal for an open-plan kitchen-diner.
Side-return
Fills the alley beside a Victorian terrace, widening the ground floor without losing garden.
Wraparound
Combines a rear and side-return extension for a transformative ground floor, usually needing planning permission.
Double-storey
Adds space above and below, subject to tighter scale and neighbour-impact scrutiny.
Basement
Creates space downward where footprint is limited, with structural and party-wall care.
Do I need planning permission for a house extension in London?
Single-storey rear extensions within permitted development limits (up to 6m for terraced/semi-detached homes under the larger-home scheme, subject to neighbour consultation) may not need a full application. Wraparounds, double-storeys and anything in a conservation area usually do. We assess your plot and recommend the right route before drawing.
