Can I convert my entire loft space?

Hi, I live in a 2nd floor, 2 bed terraced flat in South Ealing. I know that I can convert the loft space above the main section of the flat but, as I have not seen any other such conversions, I was wondering, if at the same time, I am also able to convert the return at the back of the property by building a flat roof out to the edge of the property? That is, use the whole of the loft space above both parts of my flat?

you may need planning permission to do this and any work will need to comply with building regulations - if no other property in your street has done this it may not be easy to get permission. why not call the local council planning department and have a chat ..
you will also need the permission of the freehold owner0 -
Yes, you will definitely need planning permission as flats have no permitted development rights.0
