The requirement is for an open living, dining, kitchen area and utility room on the ground floor all at one level, plus two first floor ensuite bedrooms and a family bathroom and study. The two existing bedrooms remain with the removal of the 70’s adaptation of the staircase. The first floor accommodation would all be at one level, for the convenience of elderly relatives. The accommodation is extended to the rear via a glazed link in a contemporary style. We have proposed two balconies to enhance the bedrooms and we note that there are no adjacent properties or public access to be within view of the windows. A new porch is designed more in keeping with the revamp to replace the existing flat roof one.
