Hi everyone,
I would so much appreciate your help. We are planning a single storey kitchen extension to the rear of our semi detached house. We do not get along with our adjoining neighbour so are treading veerrrrrrry carefully with this and want to dot the Is and cross the Ts.
My question is, if we are extending out, away from the properties, and if we are not building upto or astride the boundary line (we would be around 120mm away from it), is a party wall agreement needed? There are no outbuildings or existing extensions on her side. No foundations would need to be present on her side, and no access would be required for the build either.
I am fine with writing a very polite letter and coordinating that myself, it's just she is a very grumpy old lady with lots of time on her hands and I can see her being very problematic, not responding, digging in her heels etc etc.
