Cottage Extension Plans

Cottages are known for their charm, character and traditional design. However, many cottages have smaller and limited living spaces, which can make contemporary living quite a challenge. If you are looking to expand your cottage home’s charm and uniqueness, a professionally designed extension can provide the added space you need.

Types of Cottage Extensions We Design

Rear Cottage Extensions

If you want to keep the original look of the cottage and want to build a bigger kitchen and living room, a rear extension is your best option.

Most of these extensions create a kitchen and dining room area that is open and makes day-to-day living much easier while still being part of the existing structure.

Side Cottage Extensions

Adding extensions to the side of a cottage can give more interior space without impacting the overall design considerably. These extensions work well for adding utility rooms, further living rooms, or home offices.

Two-Storey Cottage Extensions 

For cottages that need considerably more space, a two-storey extension can add more bedrooms, bathrooms, or office spaces, whilst increasing the size of the living area downstairs.

Traditional Style Extensions

When extending cottages, it is important to keep the traditional style. Our designs are made to blend with the existing cottage by taking into account roof lines, materials, windows, and overall size.

Yes, extensions can be done to retain the original style of the cottage.

Most cottage extensions require planning permission, especially when the property is in a protected area.

Rear extensions and side extensions provide additional living area for the cottage while not changing the original look of the cottage.
