Building in Edgware.

Edgware is the northern end of the Northern line and one of the most generously planned of the inter-war suburbs: wide avenues of 1930s detached and semi-detached houses, the larger homes around Canons Park and up towards Edgwarebury, and a town centre that is being rebuilt with new apartments.

The plots are wide enough for side extensions as well as rear ones, which opens up the whole ground floor, and the hipped roofs convert well. We do full refurbishments, double-storey extensions and lofts here, and the detached houses around Canons Park attract projects at the top of the suburban market.

The Edgware Conservation Area covers a small part of the old High Street and Canons Park; most streets are unrestricted.

Planning in Edgware.

Barnet and Harrow

Edgware straddles the two boroughs; Barnet covers most of it. Both allow most single-storey extensions and lofts under permitted development outside the conservation area.

Side extensions

Single-storey side extensions up to half the width of the house are usually permitted development; two-storey side extensions need a householder application.

Canons Park

Around Canons Park, the conservation area and protected trees affect what can be built and how close to the boundary.
