Loft Conversions in Shepherd's Bush
The housing stock in Shepherd’s Bush tends to consist of classic London Victorian and Edwardian terraced and semi-detached properties. Shepherd’s Bush is considered to be one of the London “old school” areas, neighbouring the upmarket areas of Holland Park and Notting Hill and sits alongside Chiswick, Hammersmith and Kensel Green. Shepherd’s Bush is known for its easy and relaxed vibe with lots of independent shops and cafes but with Westfield Shopping centre on its doorstep. Shepherd’s Bush is one of the best-connected suburbs of London with plenty of train, underground, overground and bus options into London and further afield. Shepherd’s Bush market is a key feature of the area and is considered by many to have escaped gentrification and retains its old-world London charm.

Rear Single Dormer
A single dormer loft conversion is one of the most economical ways to add space to your home. It is quite a simple and straightforward process and hence one of the most popular types of loft conversions. A rear single dormer conversion usually results in the addition of a large master bedroom with ensuite / shower room to the property.
Rear L-Shaped Dormer
An L-shaped dormer loft conversion is a very popular type of conversion for Victorian properties due their existing L-shaped layout. Detached, semi-detached, terraced, conversion and purpose-built flats all lend themselves to this conversion type. The additional loft space “L-shape” extends over the rear outcrop of the ground floor.
Rear Mansard
A rear mansard loft conversion is particularly suited to Edwardian and Victorian terraced houses as well as first floor flats. The party walls are built up in brick, typically London Stock Brick allowing the conversion to be the full width of the property.
Rear L-Shaped Mansard
A rear L-shaped Mansard is very similar to a rear mansard but simply extends out over the rear of the property to form another room. An L-shaped Mansard is particularly suited to a period property and a mid-terrace property.
Hip to Gable Rear Dormer
For a hip to gable loft conversion the roof hip is removed, a new gable wall is raised from the existing walls of the house and the remaining pitched roofline is extended to meet it. The gable wall is usually built up in brick or render to match the existing gable wall.
Velux Loft Conversion
A Velux loft conversion is the simplest of all loft conversion types and is also considered the cheapest way to convert your loft space. It doesn’t require any roof extension but simply a reinforcement and internal reconfiguration of the existing loft and addition of Velux windows to one or both sides of the roof.
London Roof Loft Conversion
A London roof, also known as a butterfly roof, is one that can be converted from front to back so results in one of the largest roof extensions. This conversion type results in the addition of a whole new floor leading to the same floor space as the one below.

Case Study
L-shaped Dormer Loft Conversion in Shepherd's Bush
We carried out an L-shaped dormer loft conversion on a terraced Victorian house in Shepherd’s Bush. We added a large master suite with a separate dressing room, a large bathroom and a roof terrace to the rear. A lot of natural light was drawn into this loft conversion with Velux roof windows, roof lights and French doors out to a roof terrace with room for a table and chairs and an incredible view over West London. We completely renovated the first floor of this property too, giving our clients a much-needed extra bedroom and bathroom. This property went from a three bedroom and one bathroom house to a four-bedroom two-bathroom home and with the addition of a roof terrace, some much coveted private outdoor space. We clad the outside of the rear of the loft conversion and the dormer sides in a beautiful burnt timber, making it look very sharp and Scandinavian in style from the outside. Further to creating extra space for our clients, this loft conversion has added value to the property, all round a great investment!
