Following a Pre-Application on the site, Warner Planning were appointed to submit a full application to demolish an existing bungalow on this site in North London and erect two 2-storey semi-detached dwellings with habitable loft spaces.
The proposed mix of housing was supported as it meets an identified need in the borough for opportunities for downsizing, enabling larger dwellings to become available for new occupiers and reduce the pressure to convert or subdivide existing larger homes. At the same time the proposed dwellings meet all of the internal floor space standards in the London Plan as well as good-quality amenity space and provide off street parking in line with the London Plan requirements.
Warner Planning worked closely with the Case Officer throughout the application and the design of the properties was praised to be akin to the existing properties in the street including the bay windows whilst a pitched roof lessens the impact of the height of the proposed dwellings on the street scene.
The proposal was deemed acceptable by the Council and permission was granted subject to conditions.
