NU Projects is a design and build company in Fulham SW6, founded in 2010. We handle architecture and planning drawings in Cobham KT11, under one contract. The calculator gives your own range in a minute, by scope and finish. Call 020 7731 6841, and a budget estimate typically follows within seven days.

Cobham’s houses are detached, on generous plots along wooded roads. Many sit on private estates. Green Belt land wraps around the town.

Green Belt changes the arithmetic of a design. Additions count against a volume and footprint limit. A basement escapes it only when wholly underground, inside the footprint.

That often makes going down the better answer than going out.

In the conservation areas, boundaries matter. Two Cobham Article 4 directions cover gates, fences, walls and temporary buildings.

Mature trees are common here. Policy DM6 protects their roots before, during and after construction.
