)Reasons for granting:
The application site consists of a semi-detached dwellinghouse; one of a pair fronting Wilstead Hill (Nos. 9 and 11). The proposed side extension would have a depth of 7.68m, a width of 2.51m with an overall roof height of 3.82m.
The proposed side extension would be visible to the public realm, due to its siting to the side of the existing dwelling. However it would not extend beyond the existing front of the property, and will remain set back from the road. The single storey side extension would not be considered disproportionate in relation to the built form of the existing dwelling, and when viewed from the highway, would appear a subservient and modest addition. Furthermore, the proposed materials would be considered to respect the character and built form of the dwelling and its surroundings. Overall, the proposed development is not considered to have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the area in accordance with Policy HQ1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan.
Neighbouring dwelling No.11 Wilstead Hill would be screened from the proposed side extension by the built form of the existing dwelling and therefore the proposal would not be deemed to result in any detrimental harm on the residential amenity of occupants of this dwelling, by way of any overbearing impact, loss of light or loss of privacy.
The proposed side extension would be set off the boundary with neighbouring dwelling 'Oak Tree Cottage'. Given the proposal's single storey nature and the separation distance it is not considered that the extension would result in any adverse impact on the residential amenity of occupants of this neighbouring dwelling, by way of an overbearing impact, loss of light or loss of outlook. All other neighbouring dwellings are sufficiently separated or screened from the proposals and would not be detrimentally impacted.
The proposal would not be increasing the number of bedrooms at the property, nor would it affect the existing parking arrangements and as such is not considered to cause a detrimental impact to the highway.
It is considered that the proposal would 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, Section 11 of the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide and Haynes Neighbourhood Plan.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.
