Grange Farm is a well-established residential area in the north-west of Milton Keynes — a quiet family-friendly neighbourhood with quality housing and strong demand for home improvements. We have been delivering extensions across this part of MK since 2006 and understand exactly what works here.

Grange Farm sits between Crownhill and Two Mile Ash in the north-west of Milton Keynes and was developed primarily in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The area features a strong mix of detached and semi-detached family homes on well-proportioned plots — exactly the kind of property that lends itself to a rear or side extension.

The detached homes that make up a large proportion of Grange Farm have good garden depth and plot width. A single storey rear extension that creates an open-plan kitchen and dining space is the most common brief we receive in this part of MK. Most detached properties here extend comfortably to 4 metres under Permitted Development — no planning application and no waiting on a council decision.

Semi-detached homes in Grange Farm are equally well suited to extending. A single storey side or rear addition can create a utility room a home office or an extended kitchen-diner — all within Permitted Development on most plots. Where a more substantial project is needed a double storey extension adds bedroom and bathroom space at first floor level alongside the extended ground floor.

Grange Farm borders Crownhill — the neighbourhood that gives our business its name and one where we have completed multiple projects. That local knowledge carries directly across to Grange Farm. We know the ground conditions the brickwork and the planning picture before we arrive at your door.
