Extensions, renovations and building regulations drawings for homes in Romsey and the villages of the southern Test Valley.
Orange Key designs house extensions, loft conversions and renovations in Romsey and the surrounding villages, within easy reach of our Winchester base, and prepares the planning and building regulations drawings for each project.
Romsey's historic centre, around the Abbey and the Market Place, has Georgian and Victorian townhouses and cottages where extensions need care. Beyond the centre, and in villages such as North Baddesley, there is a wide range of twentieth-century housing well suited to rear, side and two-storey extensions.
Planning applications in Romsey are decided by Test Valley Borough Council. The town centre is a conservation area with many listed buildings, so it is important to establish early whether planning permission or listed building consent is needed. We prepare proposals that respond to the character of the street as well as the house.
For most homeowners in Romsey, a project starts with house extension plans or loft conversion plans. Where a proposal needs consent we prepare the planning permission drawings and manage the application, and once it is approved we produce the building regulations drawings your builder and building control need.
We also design renovations, barn conversions and change-of-use projects, and prepare Land Registry lease plans for solicitors and landlords. If you are budgeting for a project, our house extension cost guide is a good place to start.

It depends on the size and position of the extension and on whether your home is in the conservation area or is listed. Many rear extensions outside the conservation area are permitted development; we confirm the route before design starts.
Yes. We work throughout the southern Test Valley, including North Baddesley, Ampfield, Braishfield, Timsbury and Awbridge.
