Looking to extend, renovate, or build your home in Canwick? Welcome to AM2 Architects—a Lincolnshire-based architectural studio specialising in thoughtful, high-quality residential design. From listed property upgrades to modern hillside extensions, we help homeowners in Canwick transform their space with care, creativity, and a deep understanding of heritage and planning.
Canwick is one of Lincolnshire’s most distinctive villages—set on a hillside with stunning views over the city and home to many historic buildings, conservation zones, and design-sensitive plots. At AM2 Architects, we understand how to navigate these complexities:
Conservation & Heritage Expertise
Canwick’s status as a conservation area means that sensitive design and strong planning knowledge are essential. We work closely with North Kesteven District Council and heritage officers to create proposals that enhance character while meeting modern needs.
Design-Led, Performance-Focused Architecture
Our work combines elegance and practicality. We design homes that maximise light, flow, and thermal comfort—while ensuring they complement their setting, whether historic or modern.
Tailored Client Support
Every project starts with listening. We adapt our approach to your lifestyle, your building, and your long-term goals—guiding you through every step, from concept and planning to technical drawings and construction.
1. Home Extensions
We design refined, respectful extensions that enhance your home and fit seamlessly into Canwick’s village fabric. Whether it's a rear kitchen-diner, first-floor master suite, or discreet garden room, we tailor every detail to suit the building and its setting.
2. Heritage & Listed Building Renovations
Canwick includes a range of period properties—from stone cottages to Georgian homes. We work sensitively within listing constraints to reconfigure layouts, upgrade performance, and add value—without compromising historical integrity.
3. Internal Layout Improvements
Sometimes the best solution isn’t to extend—it’s to reimagine what you already have. We unlock flow, daylight, and usability within existing footprints, creating spaces that feel fresh and aligned with contemporary living.
4. Bespoke New Builds
If you have a plot in or near Canwick, we can design a bespoke new build that respects both the surrounding vernacular and your personal vision. Our designs blend sustainability, subtlety, and high-quality detailing.
Because we balance ambition with sensitivity. Canwick homeowners trust us to design with integrity—working respectfully with conservation policies, topography, and neighbourly considerations while still delivering inspiring, functional homes. Whether your home is listed, overlooked, or part of a cherished village view, we bring calm expertise from start to finish.
1. Complimentary Consultation
We begin with a no-pressure conversation to understand your goals, assess site opportunities, and identify any conservation or listing implications.
2. Concept Design
We produce early design options that reflect your brief and respect Canwick’s unique planning and heritage context.
3. Planning & Listed Building Consent
We manage all planning submissions, including detailed design and heritage statements, and liaise with local authority officers to ensure smooth approvals.
4. Technical Drawings & Tender Packs
We provide clear, builder-ready drawings that ensure compliance, cost certainty, and accuracy during the build.
5. Construction Support & Oversight
For full-service projects, we act as your agent—coordinating contractors, reviewing work, and ensuring your vision is realised with care and quality.
Our project highlights showcase a diverse range of architectural designs, reflecting our expertise in delivering innovative, functional, and sustainable solutions. From modern new builds to thoughtful heritage restorations, each project demonstrates our commitment to client satisfaction and attention to detail.
