The key consideration was the visual impact of the extension on the landscape, as acceptability rests on whether it renders the property more visible rather than the 71% floor area increase.
Isle of Man Planning Scheme (Development Plan) Order 1982 Policy 1
Designates the site as an area of open space not for particular purpose. The officer assessed the extension against this context alongside other policies, finding it acceptable due to limited prominence.
General Policy 3
Applies to open space areas. No specific tests detailed beyond general compliance via low visual impact.
Housing Policy 16
States 'The extension of non-traditional dwellings or those of poor or inappropriate form will not generally be permitted where this would increase the impact of the building as viewed by the public.' The officer tested the bungalow (non-traditional, modest proportions) and found the extension compliant as previously assessed, due to screening by topography and planting; amendments did not increase public impact.
Time limit
The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice. Reason: To comply with article 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
