Q1: Do I need planning permission for a garden room?
Most garden offices in Milton Keynes don’t require planning permission if they meet permitted development rules: under 2.5m high, covering less than 50% of your garden, and not used as a separate dwelling. However, rules vary for listed buildings or conservation areas (e.g., parts of Stony Stratford). At Home Crafted Spaces, we provide free guidance on Milton Keynes Council regulations and handle the paperwork to ensure compliance, so you can focus on your new workspace.
