Planning permission obtained for Dormer Extension in a Conservation Area

Successful application for a rear roof dormer extension to a terraced building of townscape merit (BTM) located within the Teddington High Street Conservation Area. A previous application was unsuccessful so it was great that we managed to turn this around for our client.

Success – Permission Granted

Successful Appeal – Extension in Conservation Area

We successfully appealed an application for an extension in North Twickenham.

The scheme involved: Proposed side extension at second floor level, the replacement of the rear extensions with a single storey glazed extension and the loss of one 1 bedroom unit from 3 units into 1no. 4 bedroom flat and 1no. 3 bedroom flat.

Once revised drawings were submitted, the Officer concluded that there would be no harmful impact on the character and appearance of the streetscene and permission was subsequently granted.

Permission on appeal – Residential extension with rooflight and flue – Mortlake

We were instructed to write the appeal statement following refusal of a first floor rear extension to a locally listed building within a conservation area.  The Council had previously approved a first floor rear extension and the new proposal was 30cm wider which the Council had refused.  The Inspector agreed with our argument that the new extensions would not have a materially different effect on the character and appearance of the area, the site as a BTM, or neighbouring BTMs, to that of the previous approval.

Permission obtained for residential extension and loft conversion – Kew

The scheme involved a single-storey rear extension and loft conversion including the removal of a chimney. We were instructed following refusal of a similar proposal.  The property is within a Conservation Area and the dormer extension was contrary to the Council’s guidelines.  We advised what would be approved and following a re-design, the Council granted planning permission.
