)Reasons for granting:
The application site comprises the curtilage of a large two storey detached dwelling located to the west of Apple Tree Close in Silsoe. No.9 is located amongst a number of large detached and semi detached dwellings and is constructed in red brickwork with a hipped tile roof. The proposed rear extension would not be visible to the street scene, however would have a subservient scale and design to the host dwelling. As such, the proposal would not look out of character and would not harm the character and appearance of the area.
The proposed extension would be located a minimum of 1.7 metres off the boundary with the neighbouring property to the south east at No.10 Apple Tree Close. No.10 benefits from a detached garage which is located along this boundary immediately adjacent to the siting of the proposed extension. Given the siting of the garage to No.10 and the single storey nature of the proposed extension and its siting off the boundary, it would not result in any undue loss of light or privacy to No.10 and would not appear as unduly overbearing. All other properties are considered to be satisfactorily spaced to ensure no adverse impact would occur from the development.
On the basis of the scale and nature of the development, adequate parking has been retained. The proposal does not create any additional bedrooms and as such will not be required to demonstrate further onsite parking.
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.
