SITE LOCATION

The property, Knock Rushen House, is located on within a quiet cul-de-sac directly accessible off the upper section of Minorca Hill. The Cul-de-Sac serves 4no properties, one within the opening off Minorca Hill and the other three properties further along the access road, Mount Pleasant being the first property on the right on approach.

EXISTING PROPERTY

The existing property is made up from a 2 storey Georgian style house and grounds with outhouses and a garage/barn style building attached.

The ground floor plan comprises of 2 reception rooms, a formal dining room and a kitchen with breakfast room which extends into the ground floor of the attached garage/storage building on a split level. There is also a lean-to glazed porch to the rear and pitched roof porch to the front making up the main entrance.

The first floor comprises of 4 bed rooms directly from a central landing space with the main bathroom accessed through a previously designated room, into a split lower level of the garage/storage building to the rear of the property.

PLANNING HISTORY

There has been no recorded planning applications made on this property or at least none visible whilst undertaking a standard planning search online.

PROPOSED WORKS

The Proposed works to this property is to demolish the existing attached garage/storage building and erect an extension in place of this to create an open plan kitchen and dining/day room area on the ground floor and to create an additional master bedroom with en-suite and external terrace at first floor.

The extension will allow for the free-flowing nature of the house whilst incorporating a more accessible kitchen area, to be used with the dining/day room and to create a separate utility with direct access to the existing driveway. The ground floor space will also allow for the inclusion of a ground floor wc/shower room and a games style room with access to the rear yard. At first floor, the extension and some internal re-arrangements will allow to create a family bathroom and master suite on the same floor level as the existing first floor.
