Covering Chesterfield
We work in Chesterfield (S40, S49) and the places around it, including Staveley, Dronfield and Sheffield.
Homes in the East Midlands
Across the East Midlands you find everything from city terraces to modern estates and stone villages, so the right extension depends a lot on the street and the materials around it.
What do you get with a garden annexe?
We design annexes as permanent buildings with proper foundations, insulation and services, and we prepare the planning case showing how the annexe will be used as part of the main home. Connections for water, drainage and power are planned from the start.
- Design and planning application
- Heating, hot water and electrics
- Accessible design options for older relatives
How much does a garden annexe cost in Chesterfield?
Indicative costs for garden annexes. London and the South East usually sit towards the top of each range.
| Garden annexes | Guide price incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| Standard specification | £2,400 to £2,900 per m² |
| Good specification | £2,900 to £3,400 per m² |
| High specification | £3,400 to £3,900 per m² |
Do you need permission for a garden annexe in Chesterfield?
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
A self-contained annexe used for sleeping and living normally needs planning permission in England.
What can change the price or programme?
- Drainage may need a pump if the garden falls away from the sewer.
- A level threshold and wider doors make the annexe suitable for later life.
From first call to completion
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
Your questions answered
Can I rent the annexe out?
Usually not without a separate planning permission, because councils normally require it to stay part of the main house.
Can you make it wheelchair accessible?
Yes. Level access, wider doors and a level-access shower can be designed in from the start.
Can you visit a house in Chesterfield to quote?
Yes. After a short call we arrange a site visit to measure up and agree what the design needs to do, then send a written price.
