Richmond is one of the few places in Greater London where you can find genuinely large family homes, detached and semi-detached houses with proper gardens, generous room proportions and the kind of space that allows for truly ambitious kitchen extensions. When Richmond homeowners renovate, the expectation is high: something elegant, considered and built to last for decades.
Planning permission in Richmond, and the Richmond Park views
Richmond falls within the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, which has its own planning policies and several conservation areas, particularly around Richmond Hill, the Green and the riverside. The Richmond Landscape Policy, which protects views into and from Richmond Park and Richmond, can affect permitted development rights for some properties. It is always worth seeking specialist planning advice before committing to a design.
