Morning. I am reading conflicting info and would like to be clear. Can you convert a detached garage into a bedroom under permitted development or would the garage need to be attached to meet the guidelines?

Fair comment. We'll ask. Hoping for a helpful officer.

Hi think after doing a bit further research is that if you link the extension and the dormer it fails as they will technically regard it as a two storey extension. I think.

Aha. Thought so, Will try to find the other thread... ta!

Under permitted development

Rear extension on bungalow meets proposed new dormer. Any reason why this could fail PD or all good?

This was my thought from the get go to be honest and this is how we will proceed. I was wondering if anyone had previous experience in such a case. Let's see how this rides...

Ok. Well that's confirmed it!:ROFLMAO:

Thank you.....

Indeed. Yes. But front and rear are different lengths. I would like to think they would take half of the front elevation as a whole as the max allowable under PD

Hi all. Anyone come across or know how the powers that be decide on the PD side extension rule when the property is shaped thus? The total width of the front elevations combined or the rear? Regarding the side being no more then half width of the existing dwelling.

Haha. Damn right I will let them work it out! Thanks all. This was hurting my little noggin.

Ha. Lots of differing numbers.

How did you work it out?

Nice one! Maths...
