Paragraph 84 Dwelling approved October 2026!
Only a small number of Paragraph 84 homes are approved each year — but those that succeed become landmark projects, admired for their innovation, sensitivity, and quality.
A Paragraph 84 dwelling is an isolated, new home in the English countryside that can be built only if it demonstrates truly exceptional architectural quality and enhances its setting, under the National Planning Policy Framework. The policy, formerly known as Paragraph 55, 79, or 80, requires designs to be outstanding, innovative, and sensitive to the local landscape and character
