A Planning and Conservation Area Consent Application has been submitted for the Barn built c 1820.
This application is in three parts; a new garden-room kitchen
extension to the north elevation, a new garage located off the drive and a conversion of the original
integral garage to form a studio for the owner. Each is described in turn as
follows:
Proposed garden-room
kitchen extension. This extension is sited at the north end of The Barn and
occupies the original patio.
The design
intent is that of an individual pavilion extension as the character and
symmetry of the original building is very attractive and shouldn’t be
unbalanced. The extension sits well alongside the original building and has
been kept to an appropriate size so as not to dominate.
The building
also provides much need aspect and contact with the garden which the house
currently doesn’t provide. The building will be difficult to see and will have
no detriment or loss of amenity to any neighbours.
New garage. This will
provide accommodation for two cars and bicycles in a two bay oak framed and
boarded garage. A plain tiled roof will match the garden-room extension. The
building will not be visible from Main Street and will have no detriment or
loss of amenity to any neighbours.
The garage is
border on two sides by very high and thick hedging or conifers.
Garage Conversion; As
a new garage is proposed, this space will be accommodated into the footprint of
the house. It is proposed that the ground floor will be converted to a study
for the present owner with small mezzanine over, within the roof space.
Converting the
garage creates only a small amount of additional roof (above the existing) and
the garage doors are replaced with a smaller version of the original barn
window adjacent (south elevation). A much larger, effectively two storey, roof
extension in this area had previously been granted (see below).
