)Reasons For Granting,
The property is a semi-detached dwelling located on Clifton Road in Henlow. The proposal consists of a single storey rear extension measuring a width of 6.4m at its widest, and would follow the existing fenceline to a narrowest width of 4.7m, a depth of 9.5m at its deepest, and 4.3m at its shallowest.
A flat roof measuring a height of 5.5m is proposed, and two rooflights included within the proposal would increase the highest point of the proposal to 4.62m.
This rear extension would replace an existing pitched roof conservatory located on the site.
The proposal would be located to the rear of the property, and therefore the proposal would not have an impact on the character and appearance of the streetscene of Clifton Road.
The proposal would remain marginally set off the boundary with the attached adjacent neighbour (46 Clifton Road). Although it is noted that the proposed rear extension would protrude further from the rear wall of the dwellinghouse than the existing conservatory, existing built form noted to the rear of the adjacent neighbour, and boundary treatment in the form of a fence would partially screen the proposal from any detrimental material impacts on this adjacent neighbour.
Furthermore, a significant separation distance is noted between the proposed extension and the other adjacent neighbour (42 Clifton Road), and therefore it is not expected that is proposal would lead to a loss of light, loss of privacy or overbearing impacts on this adjacent neighbour.
All other properties are considered sufficiently separated from the application site for there to be any material impacts.
Henlow Parish Council were consulted on this application, and raised no objection. The proposal was also subject to a public and neighbour consultation, and no representations were received.
Given the siting, design and scale of the proposal, it is not considered that the proposal would have any material impacts on the residential amenities of neighbouring properties, and would not have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the streetscene. The proposal is therefore in conformity with Policy HQ1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan and the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide.Reasons For Granting,

)Will a new extension affect your Council Tax Charge?
The rate of Council Tax you pay depends on which valuation band your home is placed in. This is determined by the market value of your home as at 1 April 1991.
Your property's Council Tax band may change if the property is extended. The Council Tax band will only change when a relevant transaction takes place. For example, if you sell your property after extending it, the new owner may have to pay a higher band of Council Tax.
If however you add an annexe to your property, the Valuation Office Agency may decide that the annexe should be banded separately for Council Tax. If this happens, you will have to start paying Council Tax for the annexe as soon as it is completed. If the annexe is occupied by a relative of the residents of the main dwelling, it may qualify for a Council Tax discount or exemption. Contact the Council for advice on 0300 300 8306.
