Hi
Quick question regarding planning constraints on single storey rear extension I am considering. Hopefully someone can advise?
We are in the process of buying a new family house. The property is 4 bed semi, located in Conservation area with Article 4 direction, limiting various permitted development rights. Adjoining neighbour to the right and a boundary edge with service road to the left. The borough is Brent.
We wish to build a single storey flat roofed rear extension and I wish to build to maximum possible size.
I know 3m is the maximum depth, but can I recess/ setback from the neighbouring boundary (i.e 3m depth at adjoining boundary and deeper extension further away from boundary line). I have got friends who have similar consent for single storey in Harrow borough (2:1 setback rule), but Brent's SPG 5 does not guide on this for single storey extensions. Proposed extension would be full width of existing rear wall of house.
The adjoining neighbour has a conservatory (with brick walls and glass roof). This is 3m in depth from rear original wall. Can I have my extension 3m depth at this boundary edge and then 4 m depth at a setback distance from the boundary??
Any advice would be kindly appreciated.
cheers,
