Building a home of your own is something that many people dream of. When you design and build your own home, you are getting a property that is unique to you and something that is suited to your lifestyle.
Many people think that in order to be able to build their dream home, they will not be able to do so in London and are going to have to move out – after all, we all have heard how tight it is in London and how little land is available.
However, it is entirely possible to build in London – it just needs a little more creative thinking to find the plot of land that you want. In the case of London, brownfield land (land that has previously been developed) is likely what you are going to have on offer, as greenfield land is not something that you will find in the city. Any green land that you do find is most likely going to be protected from any building work.
There are websites that you can look on to find land, however it is also worth doing some searching of your own – people may have land that they are not using, and you could offer to buy it from them. It is also helpful to find a local architect, like this residential architects Battersea based company https://www.rbddesign.com/architectural-design/residential-architecture-london/architects-battersea/ as they will not only be able to help you to design the place, but will also be able to help with things like planning laws.
