Planning to Build on Garden Land?
About us.

If you own a large garden, side plot or corner site, you may be wondering whether you can build a second home, split your plot, or develop part of your land. At KHD Architecture, we help homeowners across South East London and Kent unlock the value in their land — through careful planning, design, and local knowledge.

Whether you're looking to create a second home for family, build a rental property, or prepare a site for sale, we offer architectural design and planning support tailored to small-scale residential development.

We’ve worked with homeowners in boroughs like Bexley, Bromley and Greenwich to gain planning permission for new-build houses on garden land, infill plots, and sites with existing dwellings. Our designs balance the character of the neighbourhood with practical layouts and a strong planning case.

Common projects include:

  • Building a home in your back garden
  • Subdividing a large plot
  • Converting a garage or annexe into a separate dwelling
  • Demolishing and rebuilding a home with better layout and value

We guide you through every step — from assessing whether your site has development potential, through to submitting drawings for planning permission. If needed, we can also support you in working with planning consultants or preparing for appeals.

If you’re a homeowner with land to develop and are searching for architects experienced in small residential schemes, we’d be happy to talk.
