Hey all,
I'm buying a flat and have obviously been checking that the planning permission is all OK for the conversion of the house into flats and I noticed that the planning permission states it's for 1x 2 bed flat and 1x 3 bed flat. But the flats are actually 2x 2 bed flats. Well, one (the one we're buying) is 2 bedroom plus a lounge whereas the other is just 2 bed. Does that sound right or is it wrong that it's not stated as 2x 2 bed flats in the planning permission?
Also, the loft is converted and the planning gives permission for a dormer at the rear which is the case, but also on the front side are 2 sky light type windows. They're quite big. Does that sound like it's breaching the planning permission because there's no explicit permission for the sky lights?
Obviously I doubt anyone can give 100% answers, but any advice is much appreciated!
