Kents Hill is a well-established residential area in the east of Milton Keynes — a quiet family neighbourhood with quality housing and strong demand for home improvements. We have been building extensions across this part of MK for over 20 years and know exactly what works here.

Kents Hill gets described as a quiet area — and it is — but the housing stock here is more varied than that description suggests. Late 1990s executive detached homes sit alongside smaller semi-detached properties on the same streets. The plot sizes that come with the larger detached homes are genuinely generous and we have seen some ambitious extension briefs come out of this part of east Milton Keynes as a result.

The area sits between Monkston and Wavendon Gate and was developed primarily in the late 1990s and early 2000s. One consideration specific to Kents Hill is that some properties were built with permitted development rights removed by planning condition — more common on newer estates than on older housing stock. We check this at the initial site visit before any design work or cost is discussed. Most single storey rear and side extensions that do fall within Permitted Development can proceed without any planning application at all.

Planning Permission in Kents Hill

Most single storey rear and side extensions in Kents Hill fall within Permitted Development. Detached houses can extend up to 4 metres to the rear without a planning application. Semi-detached properties are permitted up to 3 metres. Some properties may have had permitted development rights removed at the time of the original development — we confirm your exact position at the initial site visit.

The cost of your extension depends on size specification and the specifics of your plot. We provide a fixed price agreed in writing before work starts — no variations through the build and no surprises on the final invoice. See our full home extension cost guide for Milton Keynes.
