The application site is the curtilage of 5 Links Close, Peel, a detached single storey property situated on the southern side of a cul-de-sac.
This application seeks approval for the erection of an extension to the rear of the property to provide an additional bedroom. The extension would continue the main ridge line of the property and would fill in the area to the rear of the existing attached garage. All exterior materials would match the existing dwelling.
The application site is located within an area identified as being predominantly residential use by the Peel Local Plan. Within the Isle of Man Strategic Plan, Paragraph 8.12.1 is relevant. this states:
"As a general policy, in built up areas not controlled by Conservation Area or Registered Building policies, there will be a general presumption in favour of extensions to existing property where such extensions would not have an adverse impact on either adjacent property or the surrounding area in general."
General Policy 2 of the Strategic Plan relates to development that is in accordance with its land use designation. It states:
"Development which is in accordance with the land-use zoning and proposals in the appropriate Area Plan and with other policies of this Strategic Plan will normally be permitted, provided that the development:"

The following previous planning applications are considered relevant in the assessment and determination of this application:
01/00659/B Erection of conservatory. Permitted. 05/01051/B Erection of conservatory to rear elevation. Permitted.

Peel Town Commissioners
The main issues to consider in the assessment of this application are whether the proposed extension would have an adverse impact on either adjacent property or the surrounding area in general.
The properties within the cul-de-sac are set a reasonable distance from one another. From assessing the proposed plans it can be seen that the proposed extension would not breach the 45 degree line from the rear elevation of No. 6. Furthermore the extension would be single storey in height and this combined with its siting and relationship with No.6 would prevent it from having an unacceptable impact upon amenity.
The extension would not be seen within the streets cene however it is nonetheless designed to be in-keeping with the existing dwelling.
