Proposal

Two-storey extension on the north west side of the property, within the internal corner of the current 'L' shaped dwelling footprint. Raise the first-floor wall height under the existing lower height mono-pitched roof area, after removing the roof, in order to construct a twin, dual pitched, hip-ended roof structure to span the area including the area of the two-storey extension created above. Install insulation within the roof space and two banks of solar P.V. panels on the south south east roof slopes for energy self-sufficiency. As a result of the works, the extra space created plus the existing space, will be configured as detailed on drawing 601-02.
