)Reasons for granting:
The application site is located on the eastern side of St Neots Road and is a semi-detached two storey dwelling constructed of brick and tile and has previously been extended. As the proposed single storey extension will be to the rear it will not be visible from the streetscene. It will be subservient to the main dwelling therefore its visual impact will be minimal.
The proposed single storey extension, due to its scale and siting in regard to both proximity to boundary and relationship with neighbouring dwellings, would not result in a harmful overbearing impact or material loss of light given the relationships involved. Both Nos 56A and 56B St Neots Road have been previously extended at the rear. The proposed extension would extend off the existing 3m deep single storey element by a further 3m (6m in total together). No 56A has rear fully glazed doors to what appears to be a main habitable room. However, when considering the scale of the development proposed and the orientation of the sun it is considered that the proposal will not cause an unacceptable overbearing impact or loss of light. Due to its siting and positioning of the rear window, the rear infill extension would not give rise to mutual overlooking concerns. It would be blank sided and can be conditioned to remain as such. The proposed extension would be sufficiently offset from all other surrounding properties.
On the basis of the scale and nature of the development, adequate access and parking has been retained.
Neighbouring properties have been consulted on the application and no comments have been received. Sandy Town Council was consulted and have raised no objection.
Therefore, it is considered that the proposal would be in accordance with Policies HQ1, and T3 of the Adopted Central Bedfordshire Local Plan (2021), the Adopted Central Bedfordshire Design Guide (August 2023), the Parking Standards for New Development SPD (August 2023) and Section 12 of the NPPF (2023).Reasons for granting:
