Officer's Report

The proposal is to replace the existing extension to the rear of the property with a new single storey extension will roof terrace, which will be set to the rear of the property and will not be visible from the public highway of Stanley Place.

The proposed extension is slightly large than the existing extensions and outbuildings. The proposal will also create a decked area will balustrade fencing to replace the existing area, which a letter of comfort was issues back in 2004. The proposed decked area is an improved on the existing situation as the new balustrade will help to reduce the loss of privacy from the existing situation. I consider the proposal will not adversely affect the residential amenity of No. 4 a Stanley Place in terms of overshadowing, loss of light and loss of privacy. I therefore recommend that planning permission be granted subject to conditions.
