Proposal

Proposed part single-storey and part two-storey side and rear extensions and associated alterations to the existing dwelling. The proposed works comprise a single-storey rear extension projecting approximately 4.0 metres from the existing rear elevation, together with a two-storey side extension and first-floor rear extension. The proposed ground-floor alterations will enlarge and reconfigure the existing accommodation, with the proposed ground-floor plan showing an overall rear extension width of approximately 7.8 metres and a 4.0 metre rear projection. At first-floor level, the proposed works will extend the existing dwelling to provide one additional bedroom and one additional bathroom, together with an extension to an existing bedroom. The proposed first-floor plan shows a 4.0 metre rear projection, with the additional accommodation integrated into the existing first-floor layout. The works also include alterations to the existing attached garage and front elevation, including replacement of the existing garage door and front entrance door, together with associated alterations to the external appearance of the dwelling. Alterations to the existing roof form are proposed to accommodate the extended first-floor accommodation, with the new roof designed to integrate with the existing dwelling. The proposal includes the installation and replacement of external windows and doors, including new/reconfigured openings to the front, side and rear elevations. Proposed windows and external doors will be finished in anthracite grey PVC, with an anthracite grey metal garage door and anthracite grey rear patio doors. The external walls of the extensions will be finished in red facing brickwork to match the existing dwelling, with grey roof tiles to match the existing roof, providing continuity between the existing and proposed parts of the property. The development will provide approximately 67.8 m² of additional gross internal floorspace. The dwelling will remain in use as a single dwellinghouse, with no change of use and no increase in the number of residential units. The existing provision of off-street parking spaces will be retained.
