I'm interested in buying a19th Century house which has a loft room with a fixed staircase - it has an original small dormer at the front and is fully plastered, boarded, etc. It has been in use as a habitable room (rather than loft storage) possibly for as long as the house has existed (same the rest of the terrace) - and certainly for many decades before 1985.
The room is advertised as a loft room, rather than bedroom - given that the conversion was carried out many years ago, will the addition of a Velux or additional dormer under permitted development rules require any changes to or inspection of the rest of the space?
