Securing planning permission is one thing — achieving approval for a new Padel court within the grounds of a listed building, deep in the Holme Valley Green Belt, with adjacent tree preservation orders is another thing entirely.

Through a pragmatic and carefully considered planning strategy, we successfully navigated the complex balance between heritage, landscape protection, ecology, trees and modern recreational use.

Planning and Listed Building Consent approved! (the Padel court was built/completed within 2 months of the approvals).

A fantastic example of how knowledge, experience, persistence and intelligent design can unlock opportunities even on the most sensitive sites. If your project faces planning challenges, Paul Matthews Architectural Ltd has the experience and expertise to help make it happen.

FROM TIRED TO TRANSFORMED

We’re so excited to share this stunning project for another returning client.

A complete makeover including extensions and internal alterations that have totally redefined this home inside and out.

What was a very dated and restricted space is now a bright, modern, and beautifully extended property with so much more room to live, relax, and enjoy.

See the before and after photos below, the difference speaks for itself!

• Extended living space
• Fresh, contemporary exterior
• Seamless flow inside and out
• A home that feels brand new

This is exactly why we love what we do – creating spaces that transform the way people live in their homes.

A cold site visit earlier today, high up on the hills above Holmfirth.
A tired old farmhouse currently undergoing the construction phase. The site visit was rewarded with the outstanding views sweeping across the Holme Valley.
From the outset, the setting demanded ambition tempered with sensitivity, especially given the Green Belt location.
Through a carefully planned and strategic approach to the planning process, we successfully secured approval for two large, two-storey extensions and two single storey extensions transforming the property while respecting its rural context. The result is an impressive 92% increase in living space, alongside consent for a detached quadruple garage. Proof that with the right strategy, even the most constrained Green Belt sites can deliver exceptional outcomes.
We’re excited to see this one completed.
