The officer assessed the dwelling as having a mix of traditional and non-traditional features, applying Housing Policies 15 and 16.
Environment Policy 2
Requires protection of character in Areas of High Landscape or Coastal Value unless no harm or essential location. Officer found no harm as extensions not prominent from road due to screening, improve proportions, and site in cluster not open countryside.
Housing Policy 15
Permits extensions to traditional properties respecting form, exceptionally over 50% floorspace. 120% increase approved exceptionally as design enhances traditional Manx farmhouse proportions despite exceeding threshold.
Housing Policy 16
Restricts extensions increasing public impact of non-traditional dwellings. Majority works (single-storey/rear) do not increase impact; two-storey first floor does but screened and proportion-improving.
Policy 3 of Planning Circular 3/91
Requires maintaining original form character. Assessed but prior refusal overcome by amended design respecting proportions.
