8. Double-storey rear extension for a Period Property house.


Like a single-storey rear extension, any rear extension on a Period Property house will increase your living space without altering the front facade. This flexibility allows for various design possibilities, and it can sometimes be more visually striking to opt for a bold new style rather than attempting to match the original construction.

Modern extensions for Period Property houses are very popular and can provide a contemporary aesthetic that complements the historic structure. However, if you prefer a traditional look, many builders can seamlessly match the original brickwork to maintain a cohesive appearance.

If your home already has a single-storey rear extension and you wish to add a room above it, or if you're planning a two-storey extension from scratch, there are many options to consider, which can be overwhelming.

Seeking advice from an architect or interior designer can help you determine the best approach. Additionally, there is a wealth of inspiration available online to help you explore the possibilities. Always remember to check local building regulations before finalizing any plans, especially if you live in a conservation area where restrictions may apply.
