Converting a House into Flats – Expert Planning & Design in London & Home Counties

At Draw Plans, we specialise in converting houses into flats through smart architectural design and planning strategy. Whether you're a landlord, developer, or homeowner looking to turn a house into flats, our experienced team guides you through every step—from layout design to planning approval.

​

With over 15 years of experience working across London and the Home Counties, we've helped transform hundreds of homes into efficient, high-yield multi-unit dwellings that meet both council requirements and tenant expectations.

​

Why Convert a House into Flats?

Maximise rental yield
Increase resale value
Cater to urban housing demand
Optimise underused or oversized homes

​

We’ll help you understand what’s possible based on your site, building type, and local council policies. From converting a house into 2 flats to subdividing large properties into 3 or more units, Draw Plans will create solutions that are functional, legal, and appealing.

​
