- Full Application - Granted Conditions or Reasons: View Conditions or Reasons Informative Notes: 1 )Reasons for Granting: The application site is a two-storey detached dwelling located on Wing Road in Linslade. The proposal consists of the erection of a part two-storey, part single-storey rear extension with rooflights and additional side windows. The proposed extension would not be visible within the street scene of Wing Road, which is characterised by detached properties of similar scales and designs. The proposed single storey extension would extend from the existing rear elevation by 4 metres, to a width of 5.6 metres. The first floor would extend over the existing rear extension, and have a depth of 4.3 metres and a width of 4.5 metres. The first-floor would have a lower ridge height with a hipped roof, and appear subservient to the original dwelling. Nearby dwellings cite existing examples of two storey and single storey extensions, with the neighbouring dwelling, No.115, hosting a similar extension to the proposal. It is acknowledged that the extension would be large in cumulative depth, within the context and existing examples nearby, it would be considered acceptable in this location and dwelling. As such, the proposal would not be deemed to have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the area or the existing dwelling. The proposal includes the installation of a ground floor window in the north-east side elevation, and first-floor windows in both side elevations. The ground floor window would provide outlook to the neighbouring dwelling's extension (No.115 Wing Road) and would not result in a loss of privacy. The first floor window in the north-east facing side elevation would serve a bathroom and a condition would be imposed to ensure the window in obscurely glazed. The window in the south-west facing side elevation would have an outlook towards No.119 Wing Road and cites existing windows in the side elevation. The neighbouring windows serve a bathroom, which is obscurely glazed, and the stairwell and as such there is no loss of privacy. The windows would have a staggered relationship and sited at different levels, with the stairwell window set at a lower level. As such, there would be no direct outlook or mutual loss of privacy between the dwellings. Following an amendment to the scheme, the first floor extension would be sited 2.6 metres from the boundary with No.115 Wing Road. The proposal, due to the separation distance, combined with the height of the roof and low sloping ridge, would comply with the 45 degree rule of light, as per the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide, and would not result in a detrimental loss of light to this neighbouring dwelling. No.119 Wing Road sites an existing two-storey extension adjacent to the boundary, and as such would not be detrimentally impacted by the proposal. The proposal would create an additional bedroom, resulting in a four-bedroom dwelling. According to the Parking Standards SPD, the property would require three off-street parking spaces, which could be achieved at the application site, as shown on drawing number 018A. Leighton-Linslade Town Council were consulted on the application and had no objection. The Council's Tree Officer was also consulted and raised no objection. The application was subject to public consultation and no representations were received. The proposal is therefore considered to be in accordance with Policies HQ1, T2 and T3 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan, Section 11 of Central Bedfordshire Design Guide, Parking Standards for New Developments SPD and Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).Reasons for Granting: The application site is a two-storey detached dwelling located on Wing Road in Linslade.

Any other consent or approval which is necessary must be obtained from the appropriate authority. 6 )Will a new extension affect your Council Tax Charge? The rate of Council Tax you pay depends on which valuation band your home is placed in. This is determined by the market value of your home as at 1 April 1991. Your property's Council Tax band may change if the property is extended.�The Council Tax band will only change when a relevant transaction takes place. For example, if you sell your property after extending it, the new owner may have to pay a higher band of Council Tax. If however you add an annexe to your property, the Valuation Office Agency may decide that the annexe should be banded separately for Council Tax.�If this happens, you will have to start paying Council Tax for the annexe as soon as it is completed. If the annexe is occupied by a relative of the residents of the main dwelling, it may qualify for a Council Tax discount or exemption. Contact the Council for advice on 0300 300 8306.
