House Extensions in Mitcham — what to expect

Mitcham's mix of Victorian terraces and interwar semis provides solid extension opportunities. Ground floor rear extensions at 4-6m are the most common project type — opening up the rear of the house into a modern open-plan kitchen-diner. The wider plots on interwar semis in Mitcham suit side extensions as well as rear extensions, and the scale of gardens in many CR4 streets allows more generous extension footprints than equivalent inner London properties.

Mitcham property types

Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses, interwar semis and detacheds, some newer build. The property type affects which extension approach works best — we'll advise from the first call.
