)Reasons for granting:
The application site is located on the western side of Bury Road. The two storey detached dwellinghouse has been previously extended together with the garden (for the latter, permitted development rights were removed for outbuildings and boundary treatment). The proposed single storey extension will straddle the settlement envelope boundary as shown on the proposal map and defined under Policy SP7 of the Adopted Local Plan. It will extend across the whole two storey rear elevation and be 6m deep. It will be approx 2.85m tall, designed with a flat roof and two roof lanterns. Whilst part of the extension will be outside the settlement envelope, that part will be within the extended garden and given it will be to the rear and subservient to the main dwelling it is not considered to be unduly harmful to the character and appearance of the area.
Given the distances and relationships involved there will be no undue loss of light, privacy or overbearing impact for surrounding properties. The property most likely to be affected is No 131 Bury Road which is a two storey dwelling sited to the north of the application site at a slightly higher ground level. Although the proposed extension would be alongside its main garden immediately behind the dwelling, given its modest height and slight change in levels together with the gap between the properties and the close boarded fence running along the shared boundary, it is not considered that there will be any undue loss of light, privacy or over overbearing impact.
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. Shillington Parish Council was consulted and support the application.
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:
