Extending a 1930s Semi in Northfields
10 July 2026
Northfields is classic 1930s Piccadilly-line suburbia - bay-fronted semis with wide gardens, built for exactly the kind of family life that still suits them beautifully today, with a bit of updating.
Those generous side gardens make Northfields wonderful for side extensions, adding a proper utility room or a bigger kitchen without eating into precious garden space. We also see a lot of loft conversions here, since the traditional 1930s roof shape is usually a lovely, straightforward one to work with.
The wide plots mean there's often more flexibility here than in denser Victorian streets nearby, so we're always happy to talk through a few different layout options at the first site visit.
