11/07/0749 17 Tennyson Avenue Oswaldtwistle Accrington BB5 4QZ Erection of a single storey and two-storey rear extension, and two storey side extension (amendment to application 11/06/0508) Miss Lamb Site description and locality This quasi semi-detached property is situated on the south side of Tennyson Avenue, Oswaldtwistle. The former Council house is the end property in a row of four which is fronted to the north by an area of open space. To the rear are playing fields. The area is entirely residential in character. Details of proposal Amendment to existing planning permission (Application No. 11/06/0508). Proposal now involves the erection of a two-storey side extension which measures 1.1m wide by 3.1m long. The erection of part single storey and part two-storey rear extension which measures 3.6 metres wide by 4.3 metres long. The extension is to be built in materials to match the existing. Planning history 11/06/0508 Erection of single storey rear extension, two-storey side extension and rear dormer – approved conditionally 2.11.06 Consultations Neighbours notified – 1 letter received making the following comments: • I would like to point out that this first floor extension, if passed, would be overlooking my living room widow. • The fact that No. 17 is very close to my property means that it would greatly affect my privacy, therefore I am strongly objecting to the first floor extension. Relevant policy Hyndburn Borough Local Plan: E10 Scale, density, design Observations Conditional planning permission was granted in November 2006 (Application No. 11/06/0508) for the erection of a single storey rear extension, two-storey side extension and rear dormer. None of the works granted by that permission have been implemented. This application seeks permission to erect a first floor extension over the proposed rear extension in lieu of the dormer approved in the earlier application. The key issues for consideration in this case are the design, appearance and scale of the proposed extensions, their impact on the character and appearance of the property and the area in general, and the impact on the amenities of neighbouring residents. 68
The proposed first floor extension as an alternative to the rear dormer previously approved is the only difference between the two schemes. This first floor extension would be in keeping with the character of the existing property, and would not be excessive in scale. In my view, the proposed extension would not have a detrimental effect on the character and appearance of the property, nor on the area in general. The neighbour who lives at No 17a Tennyson Avenue which is located to the south-west of the application property, has objected to the proposal on the grounds of loss of privacy and overlooking. It is my view that, due to the relationship between the application property and the bungalow next door at No 17a Tennyson Avenue, which is at an angle, the first floor window in the extension would overlook the neighbour’s kitchen window which is approximately 6 metres away. In view of this I consider that the proposed first floor extension is unacceptable as it would result in loss of privacy for the neighbour, not only in terms of overlooking of the kitchen window, but also the neighbour’s garden. In view of the above I consider that the application should be refused. Recommendation Refuse for the following reason: Reasons for refusal 1 The erection of the proposed first floor extension, because of its height, size, location and design, would constitute an unneighbourly form of development which would be detrimental to the amenities of the occupiers of the adjoining dwelling, in particular by the overlooking of the adjacent property and therefore would be contrary to Policy E10 of the Hyndburn Borough Local Plan. ________________________________________________________________________________ Contact Officer: C B Clarkson Dip MRTPI Address: Council Offices, Scaitcliffe House, Ormerod Street, Accrington, Lancs BB5 0PF Tel No: (01254) 388111 69
