Hi all,
Hope you're well. I've just joined the forum and appreciate the excellent forums on here.
I've got a situation with my house that I was hoping some of you could help me with. My house is a 1930s semi in London. In 2007 the house had some additions put on it as below:
A. Dormer Loft - 36.6 cubic meters
B. Side extension of the pre-existing side extension wall (as built in 1930). 3m out and 2.7m wide. 27.6 cubic meters
Both of these were done with a Certificate of Lawfulness application and approved. Total 64.2 cubic meters.
C. Rear extension from the rear main wall of the property extending 3m out and 4m wide.
This was done via a planning application and was approved.
The total width of the house is 6.7m. I have the following points I need some guidance on and which I am struggling to properly understand:
1. Can I extend C to 6m - based on the Government now allowing terrace/semis to extend to 6m from the main rear wall.
2. Can I widen B to 3.3m.
I appreciate my neighbours would have to be consulted, but I wanted to know if it's even worth pursuing before I start engaging architects and the LA planning dept.
Many thanks in advance for all your help.
