)Reasons for granting:
The application seeks planning permission for the demolition of the existing conservatory and erection of single storey rear extension as well as the demolition of existing outbuildings and the erection of a replacement outbuilding.
The proposed rear extension would be sited to the rear of the property and would not be visible to the street scene. The proposed outbuilding would be visible to the street scene, following the demolition of the existing shed, however would be set back some 26 metres from the highway and as such is not considered to have a significant impact on the street scene. The proposed outbuilding and rear extension, due to their single storey design are considered to be proportionate to the host dwelling, furthermore the proposed materials are to match the host dwelling.
The proposed rear extension would be sited approximately 0.3 metres away from the neighbouring property at No. 50 Chapel Close. The proposal would result in some loss of light to the closest ground floor window of this property. However, it is considered that the existing built form already has a degree of impact upon this window, and the proposal would not significantly exacerbate this situation. On balance, the proposal is not considered to have a detrimental impact on this neighbouring property's window. In terms of No. 50's window on the rear projection to the south (furthest from No. 48), the proposal would comply with the 45-degree rule of light for this window, and as such, it would not result in a significant loss of light to the property. The proposed outbuilding would be sited immediately adjacent to the boundaries of neighbouring properties No.2 Grange Road and No.46 Chapel Close. The proposed outbuilding, due to its height of 2.5 metres and distance from the rear elevations of these neighbouring properties, is not considered to have a significant overbearing impact or cause a loss of light to these neighbouring properties.
The proposal would not increase the number of bedrooms at the property, nor would it affect the existing parking arrangements. As such, the proposal is not considered to cause a detrimental impact to the highway.
It is considered that the proposal will be in accordance with Section 12 of the NPPF, Policies HQ1, T2 and T3 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan, Parking Standards in new development SPD 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.
