Certificate of lawfulness granted for existing use as a self-contained residential dwelling

Our client wished to regularise the existing residential use of this building, the previously approved used being as a children’s day nursery with ancillary residential accommodation above. We were able to submit evidence to demonstrate that the site has been in use continuously as a self contained residential dwelling (Use Class C3) since at least 8 February 2012. The evidence comprised layout drawings, receipts, insurance policies, AST agreements, and statutory declarations which cumulatively demonstrated the ground floor unit to be a self-contained residential unit for the duration claimed.

Application reference: 26/00420/CLD

Approval for an extension to a garage to form a home office

/ Spelthorne /

We were able to gain approval for extending and converting a garage at the end of a row of other garages. The end of terrace dwelling, situated on Shaftesbury Crescent in Laleham, has direct access from the garden to the garage.

The Planning Officer agreed with us that the scheme would not compromise the character of the area, nor neighbour amenity. The Highway Officer was happy there would be no impact on highway safety. The scheme was allowed.
