Levenshulme's Victorian and Edwardian terraces either side of Stockport Road have become some of the most popular homes in south Manchester. They have good proportions and plenty of potential, but many still have small rear kitchens and unused lofts.
We help Levenshulme homeowners make the most of that potential with extensions that open up the back of the house, loft conversions that add a bedroom, and renovations that bring older homes up to date without losing their character.

Popular projects in Levenshulme
A rear extension or side return extension is the most common way to add a family kitchen in Levenshulme, and an L-shaped dormer is the go-to loft conversion for terraces with an outrigger. Many clients also take the chance to carry out a full renovation.
Planning permission in Levenshulme
Levenshulme is covered by Manchester City Council. Most terraces keep their permitted development rights, so 3 metre single-storey rear extensions and rear dormers within the volume limits often do not need planning permission. Because the houses share walls, party wall notices are nearly always required.
