Through constructive dialogue with the council, planning permission has been granted for the erection of a single storey, ground floor, wraparound rear extension at the neighbouring properties, including the incorporation of a sukkah roof at one of the properties. The discussions ensured that the proposed development is fully aligned with local planning policies, while also responding sensitively to the character of the surrounding area. The final design reflects a careful balance between functionality and sustainability, with the council recognising the benefits this extension will bring to the properties and their occupants.
The extension provides much needed additional living space, improving the usability of the ground floors while enhancing the quality of life for the residents. By extending at the rear and maintaining a single storey scale, the design avoids negative impacts on neighbouring properties in terms of outlook, privacy, and natural light. The wraparound form ensures a coherent integration between the existing structures of both properties, promoting a sense of continuity and modernisation.
A key feature of the proposal is the sukkah roof. This element not only provides a contemporary architectural focal point but also delivers environmental benefits. The roof contributes to improved insulation and energy efficiency, supporting the council’s sustainability objectives. It also enhances the aesthetic quality of the extension, creating an attractive, modern addition that complements the existing buildings.
Overall, the extension represents a positive development for both households. It will add functional, flexible, and comfortable living space while respecting the amenity of neighbouring homes. The council’s approval highlights the collaborative approach taken during the planning proceed and acknowledges the wider benefits this carefully designed scheme will bring to the local community.
