Planning permission has been granted by Wandsworth Borough Council (Ref: 2026/0851, approved 29 June 2026) for a comprehensive programme of enhancements, including the erection of a single-storey side extension, a mansard roof extension, and the creation of a roof terrace above the two-storey rear addition.
The property's elevated position allows for an abundance of natural light, while the proposed upper-floor accommodation will benefit from far-reaching and breathtaking views across the London skyline.
