Officer’s Report
APPLICATION SITE 1.1 The site is within the residential curtilage of Creg Malin, No. 4 Queens Drive, Peel which is a semi-detached bungalow situated to the Western side of Queens Drive.
1.2 Due to the elevation of the streetscene the property is at the same level as it's attached neighbour but at a higher elevation than the neighbour to the North.
PROPOSAL 2.1 The current application proposes the removal of the existing conservatory walls and it's replacement with a flat roofed extension, with a rooflight. The existing cladded base and staircase to the rear garden are to be retained.
PLANNING POLICY 3.1 The site lies within an area zoned as "Predominantly Residential" on the Peel Local Plan 1989 Order. The property is not within a Conservation Area or a Flood Risk Zone.
3.2 Given the nature of the site and the land designation, the most relevant Isle of Man Strategic Plan policies would be General Policy 2 which sets out the general standards towards acceptable development.
PLANNING HISTORY 4.1 There is one previous application which is PA96/00482/B - Erection of Conservatory, which was Permitted.
REPRESENTATIONS 5.1 The following representations can be found in full online, below is a short summary;
5.2 LOCAL AUTHORITY
5.3 STATUTORY BODIES
ASSESSMENT 6.1 Paragraph 8.12.1 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016 states that there will be a general presumption in favour of extensions or alterations to existing properties where such works would not have an adverse impact on either adjacent properties or the surrounding street scene in general.
6.2 When looking at the proposed extension, a flat roofed extension in this instance is deemed acceptable due to the age and architectural standard of the main dwelling. The proposal is unlikely to have an impact on the neighbouring property to the South of the site above and beyond what is currently in place, and when noting that compared to the existing conservatory the extension has a reduced level of glazing and no windows are proposed on the elevation nearest the neighbours which will reduce any existing levels of overlooking.
6.3 Overall the rear extension is considered to be of a reasonable size and design as to not result in an overbearing or adverse impact on the amenity or living conditions of the neighbours.
CONCLUSION
