Proposal
This proposal seeks planning permission for a change of use from a ground floor studio plus mezzanine to a residential apartment. The change of use aims create a high-quality living space while maintaining the character and integrity of the existing structure and making efficient use of the building?s layout. It incorporates modern amenities and sustainable materials to enhance comfort and energy performance. The change of use will provide much-needed residential accommodation in the area while ensuring that the external appearance remains in keeping with the surrounding context. There will be no impact on the surrounding area, nor any risk to local services or the community.
