New build cost in Putney.
Putney — across Putney Bridge from Fulham — has been one of 2VP's busiest loft territories since 2018. The Edwardian and inter-war terraces between Upper Richmond Road and the heath are textbook L-shape dormer candidates.
What makes new-build work in Putney distinct.
Site context: Edwardian three-storey terraces with kitchen outriggers, plus inter-war semi-detached houses on the south side towards Putney Heath.
Planning: Putney Embankment, West Putney and Lower Common conservation areas restrict PD on the river-side streets, but most of central Putney qualifies for PD on rear dormers.
Applications go to LB Wandsworth. We handle the Pre-App, planning submission, party wall awards, CIL calculations and conservation officer correspondence end-to-end.

What Putney self-builders ask us.
How much does it cost to build a new home in Putney in 2026?

The Putney multiplier (0.98×) reflects local labour, scaffolding logistics and finish expectations.
What's the planning process for a new build in Putney?
Always full planning permission via LB Wandsworth. Putney Embankment, West Putney and Lower Common conservation areas restrict PD on the river-side streets, but most of central Putney qualifies for PD on rear dormers. Most Putney new builds start with a Pre-Application (£500–£2,500) to test feasibility, then a full planning submission running 13–18 weeks. Conservation areas, Article 4 directions and proximity to listed buildings add scrutiny.
What kind of plot makes sense in Putney?
Edwardian three-storey terraces with kitchen outriggers, plus inter-war semi-detached houses on the south side towards Putney Heath. Plot types that come up most often in SW15: replacement of an existing house (demolish + rebuild), side-garden infills on corner plots, and occasional backland sites accessed via a private drive. Plot acquisition prices in Putney are part of the equation — we help test feasibility before you commit to a purchase.
How long does a Putney new build take from purchase to keys?
Allow 6–12 months for design and planning (longer in conservation-sensitive parts of Putney), then 12–18 months on site for a single dwelling, 18–24 months for a large new build, and 24–36 months for multi-unit schemes. Our build programme is fixed in the contract.
How much is CIL in Putney?
Community Infrastructure Levy varies by London borough and zone, typically £20–£500 per m² of net additional floorspace. LB Wandsworth publishes its current CIL rates online; we calculate your specific liability at the planning-application stage. Section 106 affordable housing or infrastructure contributions may apply on larger schemes.
