Officer's Report

Site

The dwelling 10 Clarke Street, Douglas is a two storey detached property which is located on the southern side of Clarke Street Lane at the end of a residential cul-de-sac. The majority of dwellings in the area are terrace properties, to the north of the dwelling are the rear elevations of the properties which run along Merton Bank and to the south of the dwelling are the rear elevations of properties of Clarke Street.

The property has been zoned as being within a predominately residential area; the dwelling is not within a Conservation Area.

Proposal

The application proposes the refurbishment, alterations and installation of uPVC doors and top hung sash windows to replace existing.

Representations

The Douglas Corporation have considered the application and have no objection.

We have received no privately written representations objecting to the proposal.

Assessment / recommendation

The proposals would seem to be acceptable and will have little or no impact upon the street scene or to the residential amenity of neighbouring properties, mainly due to the improvements to the dwelling, which will improve the visual appearance of the property.

For these reasons the proposals would seem appropriate in this location and therefore my recommendation is for an approval. I consider that the following meet the criteria of Government Circular 1/06 and should be afforded interested party status: The Douglas Corporation
