ENV32 - HOUSE EXTENSIONS

The extension or alteration of houses, including conservatories, will normally be permitted provided such development:

  • does not harm the reasonable privacy and adequate daylighting and sunlighting for neighbours;
  • is not unduly prominent from neighbouring properties or in the immediate locality;
  • retains the character and style of the existing property;
  • does not result in a cramped appearance having regard to the general spacing around buildings in the locality;
  • uses external materials that match or are in harmony with the existing building;
  • would not be likely to result in on-street car parking which would cause congestion or be detrimental to highway safety or the visual amenities of the area.
