Fulham Roof Terrace
Our portfolio of London roof terrace projects is ever expanding. These range from expansive roof terraces to listed buildings such as at Grade II Listed Florin Court, to roof terraces to Mews properties such as at Adam and Eve Mews, this project in Fulham is of particular interest as it is a roof terrace to a typical terraced house. Equally important is that the property is an upper floor flat with no garden. The roof terrace provides valuable external space. It reminds us of one of our first roof terraces in London opposite Clapham Junction carried out some fifteen years ago. In addition to the roof terrace we added a dormer to the existing converted loft, providing space for an en-suite. Roof terraces are sensitive in terms of planning permission. The sensitivities revolve around overlooking, the potential source of noise plus the design and materials of the terrace enclosure.

Summary
Roof Terrace, Fulham
The success of this project is in the addition of a roof terrace to a first floor flat and giving our clients outdoor space where previously none existed. Our portfolio of roof terrace projects in London is extensive but it is often the addition of roof terraces to apartments that feel the most successful roof terrace project giving outdoor space where previously none existed.
Guide to Roof Terraces
Roof terraces can be planning sensitive projects. The sensitivities relate to issues of overlooking, potential noise disturbance and the design of the balustrading. Hence we typically use the Pre-App process whereby we can test the water with several design options and receive valuable feedback from the planning authority.
Examples of Roof Terraces
Roof terraces such as at Danehurst are relatively small but have a big impact. Our portfolio includes many such projects and many more of all types and size.
