A Side Return Extension is an infill of the passage to the rear and side of a property, commonly between two houses. While rear extensions often result in a loss of garden space, the side return infill makes use of a typically disused part of the property.
Side Return Extensions can transform poorly used spaces to the side of a house, making room for a larger kitchen, dining, and living space. They are often small but can really open up kitchen and dining areas.
If a side return extension is to a freehold house, then often the extension can be built without planning permission, as the house may benefit from permitted development rights. If this is the case, the extension will be limited to maximum heights and external materials typically have to be similar to existing.
A side return extension can offer a spectacular transformation of your home. This can be achieved on a relatively low budget with a careful approach to design.
