Listed Building Refurbishment in Fulham.

Listed houses reward care and punish shortcuts. We have refurbished Grade I listed houses on the Regent's Park terraces and Grade II houses across central London, and the approach is the same each time: understand what is significant about the building, design interventions that are reversible and well detailed, and secure listed building consent before work starts.

In practice that means new kitchens and bathrooms that do not damage historic fabric, services run in existing voids, sash windows repaired rather than replaced, and plasterwork, joinery and floors restored by trades who work on listed buildings every week. Modern comfort and a historic interior are not in conflict if the detailing is right.

For a property in Fulham we check the National Heritage List and the conservation area maps published by the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham at the first visit, explain exactly what is protected, and prepare the heritage statement, drawings and application. Conservation officers generally support schemes presented this way.

Fulham: the houses and the planning rules.

Fulham is late Victorian family housing on a huge scale: long streets of three-storey terraces built in the 1880s and 1890s, the distinctive Peterborough estate with its stone lions, the larger houses around Parsons Green and the Hurlingham Club, and the new riverside developments along the Thames. Families move here for the houses and then extend them.

Side-return and rear extensions, loft conversions with rear dormers, and basements are the standard sequence for a Fulham terrace, and a full refurbishment often does all three at once. The borough's basement policy and conservation area guidance are well established and we design to them from the outset.

The Parsons Green, Hurlingham, Peterborough Estate, Moore Park and Sands End conservation areas cover most of the residential streets.

London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham

The borough decides applications. Article 4 directions in most conservation areas mean rear extensions and roof works need a householder application.

Basements

Basements are limited to a single storey and to a proportion of the garden, with a construction method statement and neighbour notification.

Peterborough estate

The Lion houses have specific guidance on roofs, front elevations and rear extensions to keep the estate's uniformity.
