Hi, i have a few questions and was hoping i would be able to find some help on here.
we live in a (currently) council property. its a mid terrace (4 in a row) and we will be buying with a look to get a 2 storey extension on the back.
my questions are..
1. what would we be allowed to build at ground level? i read that its 3m from your rear wall, unless the adjoining properties have modifications in place already, then you can go up to the end of theirs (see second pic)
2. in regards to the 1st floor, would the extension have to be in the middle only, or could we build it the full width of the house?
3. is next door's extension legal? comes right up to the property boundry, has windows facing DIRECTLY into my garden, exposed wall and rotten wood.
thanks in advance
edit: attached pics but dont think they have shown up, are they in my albums?
