The officer assessed the principle of development in open countryside, noting a general presumption against new development but an exception for extensions to existing dwellings, with Housing Policy 1…
Environment Policy 1
Protects countryside for its own sake; development should not have adverse impact. Officer found no unacceptable impact on character/appearance of surrounding countryside due to limited visibility and subdued design.
Environment Policy 2
Within AHLVs, landscape character protection paramount unless no harm or essential location. Proposal assessed as not harming landscape quality given topography, positioning below main ridge, and materials blending with context.
Housing Policy 16
Extensions to non-traditional countryside dwellings not permitted if increasing public visual impact. Officer determined extension does not increase impact due to site topography, limited public views, and non-dominant scale relative to main dwelling.
General Policy 2
Requires development to respect site/surroundings in siting, scale, design, amenity without harming landscape/townscape character. Satisfied as no adverse amenity effects and design sympathetic to rural context.
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.
Ancillary use only
The extension hereby approved shall not be occupied at any time other than for purposes incidental to the residential use of the dwelling known as Jandakot, Old Castletown Road as identified on the approved plans and shall not be occupied as an independent dwelling unit. Reason: To ensure proper control of the development and to avoid any future undesirable fragmentation of the curtilage.
