Change of use  from a Use Class C3 to C4 granted in Greenwich

We are pleased to confirm that full planning permission has been granted for the change of use from a single-dwelling house (Use Class C3) to a 6-bed, 6-person House in Multiple Occupation (Use Class C4), including the construction of a single-storey rear extension and associated external alterations, in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. This positive outcome follows a detailed and collaborative dialogue with the local planning authority, during which our team effectively addressed key planning considerations including design quality, residential amenity, and compliance with local housing standards. Through careful preparation of supporting documentation and proactive engagement with the council’s planning officers, we were able to demonstrate that the proposed scheme makes efficient use of the property while maintaining the character and integrity of the surrounding area.

The approved development provides a well-balanced and sustainable addition to the local housing stock, offering high-quality accommodation for multiple occupants in a sought-after area of Greenwich.

The design ensures that each resident benefits from adequate space, natural light, and access to shared amenities, promoting a comfortable and functional living environment. The new single-storey rear extension enhances the overall usability of the property, improving communal areas and supporting modern standards of living. Furthermore, the scheme contributes to the borough’s wider housing objectives by diversifying tenure options and making optimal use of existing urban land without the need for new build development.
