Building in Knightsbridge.

Knightsbridge is estate London at its most exacting. The Cadogan estate's red-brick Queen Anne terraces around Hans Place and Pont Street, the stucco squares of Thurloe and Brompton, and the mews behind them are all in conservation areas, much of it listed, and the estates have their own design requirements on top of the borough's.

Refurbishments here are mostly of lateral flats and mews houses, with kitchens, bathrooms and joinery specified to a very high standard and delivered around the constraints of estate consent, porters, lifts and neighbours who expect quiet. We have worked to these rules for many years, starting a mile north in Marylebone.

The Knightsbridge, Hans Town, Brompton and Thurloe Estate conservation areas cover the whole district.

Approvals

Planning in Knightsbridge.

Two councils

The boundary between RBKC and Westminster runs through the district; we check which authority applies at the first visit and prepare the application to its requirements.

Estate consent

The Cadogan and Wellcome estates require their own approval for alterations, with detailed guidance on windows, roofs and mews frontages.

Flats

Almost all the housing is flats, so licences to alter, block working hours and structural sign-off from the freeholder's surveyor form part of every programme.
