Kensington homeowners often need extra space that respects the area’s architecture and garden proportions. We design and build garden offices that feel at home near Kensington Gardens and along Kensington High Street. Expect a warm, quiet room with electrics, heating and reliable connectivity. Every build is tailored, from layout to finishes, so it works for work, study or a creative studio.
Across Holland Park, South Kensington and W8/W14, gardens range from compact courtyards to larger communal plots behind mansion blocks. We’re used to working around stucco townhouses, period conversions and basement flats where access can be tight. Our team plans deliveries, protects paving and planting, and creates foundations suited to the site. The result is a premium building that complements listed-style details without compromising performance.
From the first survey to handover, we keep the process straightforward and well-managed. You’ll receive clear specifications, a staged programme, and advice on planning and permitted development. We coordinate groundwork, structure, electrics and heating as one package, with tidy working practices throughout. Fine Landscaping is based 40 minutes away, so support and aftercare remain fast and dependable.
In the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, access and parking restrictions can affect logistics and delivery times. We plan around controlled parking zones, narrow mews entrances and shared access ways common near Earl’s Court and Notting Hill. Ground conditions and existing paving often require careful foundation choices to avoid disturbance. Our approach keeps neighbours considered and the finish consistent with high-value period properties.

For garden offices Kensington area projects, costs typically start around £18,000–£25,000 for a compact, well-insulated build with electrics. Mid-range bespoke buildings with heating, upgraded glazing, sound proofing and higher-end finishes often fall between £28,000–£45,000. Larger or highly specified designs (extra rooms, premium cladding, complex foundations or security upgrades) can reach £50,000+. A site survey in W8/W14 helps refine the scope.
Most builds take around 3–6 weeks from start on site, depending on size and specification. Foundations and groundworks may take longer where access is restricted or where existing paving and drainage need careful work. Bespoke designs, specialist sound proofing, and electrical/heating fit-outs can extend the programme. We provide a clear schedule before work begins and keep you updated as each stage is completed.
Many garden offices in Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea can be built under permitted development, provided they meet limits on height, footprint and use (typically incidental to the home). However, Kensington properties may have constraints such as conservation areas, Article 4 directions, or conditions linked to conversions and mansion blocks. We review your site, advise on what’s likely to apply, and can help prepare drawings and information if a formal application is needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering the structural build and workmanship of your garden office, including the main frame, insulation build-up and weatherproofing details.

We guide you through options based on orientation, security needs and how you’ll use the space.
