)Reasons for Granting:
The application site is a single storey, detached dwelling located on New Road in Maulden. The proposal consists of a single storey front extension. The proposed extension would have a depth of 3 metres, a width of 4.1 metres, a height to the eaves of 2.6 metres and a maximum roof height of 3.3 metres.
The proposed extension is set to the front of the dwellinghouse and would not be readily visible from the public realm due to mature boundary treatment and a secluded siting. Brookside Bungalow is located to the south of Maulden village and surrounded by agricultural dwellings and holdings.
It would be considered that due to the location of the application site, the scale, design and materials would be an appropriate and modest addition to the existing dwellinghouse. As such, the proposal would not result in a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the area or the existing dwellinghouse.
Given consideration to the sufficient separation distance between the proposal and neighbouring dwellings, the proposed extension would be unlikely to lead to a loss of privacy, loss of light or overbearing impact. The proposal would not adversely affect the existing parking or access arrangements at the site.
Maulden Parish Council were consulted on the application and have raised no objection. The Council's Flood Risk Officer was also consulted and advised that the proposed extension is not shown to be in an area of increased risk of surface water or fluvial flooding, although it does border a low risk surface water flow path, and therefore due to its minor nature, do not consider it necessary to provide comments. The application was subject to public consultation and no representations were received.
The proposal is therefore considered to be in accordance with Policies HQ1, T2 and T3 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan, Policy M3 of the Maulden Neighbourhood Plan, Section 11 of Central Bedfordshire Design Guide, Parking Standards for New Developments SPD and Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).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.
