Studio Novembers design and feasibility review for period homes, listed buildings and conservation properties — across Oxford, the Cotswolds and London.
Why it matters
A survey tells you whether a building is sound. It doesn't tell you whether it can become the home you want, what the planning path looks like, or what the work will cost. Our review does.
WHAT YOU RECIEVE
A considered document, made for your property
A considered document, made for your property
i A written pre-purchase review
Our professional read on whether the property can become what you want — in plain language, not jargon.
ii Feasibility & constraints
What's possible spatially and structurally, set against the listed-building, conservation and planning restrictions that govern the property.
iii An outline consent path
The likely route to approval, the probable sticking points, and an honest view of what consent is — and isn't — realistic.
iv Annotated visuals
Marked-up photographs and hand sketches showing opportunity and risk, room by room.
v An indicative cost range
A considered budget for the work ahead, so the asking price can be judged in context rather than in the dark.
vi A follow-up consultation
A call with us to talk the findings through before you commit.
· A clear verdict
Whether we'd advise proceeding, negotiating or walking away — and, where it helps, the points you could use to negotiate on price.
If you're considering buying a house to renovate, architectural and design advice before you purchase can help you understand what the property could become and whether your plans and budget are realistic.
Studio November offers a Pre-Purchase Property Consultation starting from £4.00 per square meter with a minimum fee of £450 + VAT .
We visit the property with you, discuss what you'd like to achieve, and assess the opportunities for reconfiguration, renovation or extension. We also consider potential planning, heritage and practical constraints, and whether the scale of investment feels appropriate for your ambitions.
The purpose isn't to design a house you don't yet own. It's to help you make a more informed decision about whether it's the right house to buy.
