Official record

Development description

Permission to amend their previously granted planning application d23a/0026. They no longer intend to construct the 70sqm ground floor extension to the rear, instead they proposed to extend the existing 11.7sqm kitchen extension by 6sqm and finish it with a new flat roof and rooflight. The previously approved front garage extension and canopy over the entrance are to be retained with minor modifications, an alternative garage door and smooth render instead of timber cladding. All timber cladding has been removed and the entire property will now be 'finished with a smooth render finish as previously approved for the majority of the facades. At first floor, the 2no. Previously approved proposed dormers to the front have been removed and instead the existing timber clad dormer will be made good and finished with new windows and seamed metal cladding. The previously approved front rooflight is to be retained and we propose an additional similar sized rooflight adjacent to it. We propose to divide the previously approved continuous dormer across the rear into two sections, associated with the rear bedrooms, constructed within the outline of the previously approved version. The proposal also includes a new rear roof light to the remaining pitched roof, the repositioning of the back door and retention and resizing of the existing first floor gable window. The permission will still include the demolition of 1 no. Chimney to the rear, the widening of the existing vehicular entrance to 3.4m, alterations to the internal layout, lowering of the existing ground floor level and associated site works.
