Kate Hughes: Housing market needs more than cheaper extensions - Property - House & Home - The Independent
I'm sure you'll be completely fascinated to hear that I'm weighing up the possibility of a kitchen extension. I figure cooking in a space that both my fiancé and I can occupy simultaneously without asphyxiating ourselves has to be the height of luxury living. And after last night's Bolognese-sauce-meets-ceiling debacle, I'm already living in a B&Q catalogue in my head.
So you can imagine my feelings upon learning that ministers are dabbling with the idea of allowing homeowners to increase the maximum size of an extension or loft conversion they can currently secure without planning permission. In fact, on a detached property this limit could go up to 8m in length (6m for terraces) as long as it doesn't eat up more than half the garden
