Planning Appraisal:
This householder application seeks consent for the erection of a single storey
extension to the rear of the existing two storey detached dwelling. The application is
set within the Nannerch conservation area and has been advertised as within the
conservation area and as affecting the setting of a listed building. (Lollipop Cottage).
The application site is within the settlement boundary of Nannerch.
As the application is within the conservation area and within the curtilage setting of a
listed building , the conservation officer has been consulted and has responded as
above.
The single storey extension is proposed to be approx 21m2 in its footprint and 3.8m
in its height at the apex of the roof line at its maximum height. . The extension is
proposed to be of cat slide roof design , with a blank elevation proposed on the
elevation close to Autumn Cottage separated by approx 1.6m on the rear elevation
of Autumn Cottage , as such the proposal will not be detrimental to amenity .
The conservation officer has assessed the application and requested amended
details in relation to the details of the scheme in relation to the fenestration details ,
to enable the scheme to be more appropriate to its sensitive setting. The agent has
now forwarded these revised details and the scheme is now acceptable to
conservation and is considered compliant with the above policies.
The surrounding buildings only have roof lights on the elevations facing the
proposed extension, the rest of the elevations are blank , accordingly the single
storey extension is not considered to adversely impact upon neighbouring amenities.
