Side Return Advice - Landells Road


Dulwich-ite

Recommended Posts

Hi All,


First time poster and will be a resident in East Dulwich very soon.


We have recently bought a 2 bed terrace house on Landells Road.


We would like to have the side return extension done.


HOWEVER, some of the prices that are being thrown around terrify me.


The area of the side return is around 6.88 sq meters. The kitchen in its current state is 7.17 sq m.


Could anyone please advise what the building costs of this would be (ignoring the cost of the kitchen itself)?


To cut back on cost we would likely not extend past the current length of the house. The doors etc don't need to be too fancy.


Any help/experience would be massively appreciated. Any builders out there please chip in!!


Thanks in advance,

Have a word with Angela Lyon of Orbital Chartered Surveyors. As a Chartered Quantity Surveyor she can cost a project accurately to within pennies. No shabby estimates with her. As a Chartered Buildings Surveyor, yup, she's double chartered, she can take into consideration factors relating to the existing building and if you like her over-all cost, she can get the whole project done for you under one roof, which is her motto. She's over 40 years experience in this (started in her teens). It's worth a chat with someone that knows what they're talking about at least. Then you'd get an idea if the prices you're getting are realistic or off this planet.

Hi Jimi,


Thanks for your advise, that is not a route we had previously considered.


It would be great to hear from anyone who has done a basic side return extension on a 2 bed Victorian.


I should have mentioned, it is end of terrace if that makes a difference...


Many thanks,

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
