No physical alterations are proposed, just a change of use.

General Policy 2
Requires development in residential zoning to respect site surroundings, not adversely affect amenities, character, road safety, or provide adequate parking. The officer confirmed the change of use complies as it matches residential impacts, with existing parking and no consultee objections.
Business Policy 13
Permits tourist accommodation in private residential properties if neighbouring amenities are not compromised. The officer found the use would have the same impact as permanent residential occupancy in this residential area with nearby properties.
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 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
