- Full Application - Granted Conditions or Reasons: View Conditions or Reasons Informative Notes: 1 )Reasons for granting The application is a two-storey, large detached dwelling located in Milebush, Linslade. No. 12 is constructed of brickwork, with a tiled pitched roof and has living space in the loft with roof lights to the front and rear of the property. A double garage is located to the front and side of the property and connected to the dwelling. The applicant is surrounded by properties of varying design. The proposal would comprise a single storey extension to the rear of the double garage and to the side of the property which would be approximately 4.56m by 2.43m wide. The proposal would have a mono pitched roof and have an overall heigh of 3.9m with two roof lights. A small section to the rear of the garage would be converted to additional living space, approximately 4.5 sqm. The remaining area of the garage would still accommodate one off-street parking space. The proposed would extend back to the rear elevation on the boundary of No. 27 Milebush. The proposal would result in a modest increase to the property footprint and would not be visible from the street scene seeking minimal impact, therefore it is not considered to detract from the character of the area and as such, the proposal is not considered to have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the area and is in accordance with Policy HQ1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan. In terms of neighbouring amenity, the proposed extension would not result in a change to the front elevation or street scene with a garage door to remain, a new single door to the side of the garage to replace the existing window and a double door lat the rear of the property, which would have a similar look out to the existing door and window . No. 27 is a neighbouring two storey property that has no fenestration to the side of the property and therefore there would be minimal visual impact and not impact the neighbouring amenity. All other neighbours are sufficiently separated from the proposed development for there to be any visual impact or loss of light. Therefore, it is considered that the proposal would not result in a detrimental impact on the residential amenities of any neighbouring properties and would be in conformity with Policy HQ1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan. The proposal does create an additional bedroom and it is assumed that the property with four bedrooms, the garage would still be counted as a parking space and there sufficient space is maintained on the driveway to facilitate 2 parking spaces which meets the requirements for a 4-bedroom property. Therefore, adequate parking provision has been retained on site and the proposal is considered to be in conformity with Policies T2 and T3 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan. Leighton-Linslade Town Council were consulted and raised no objection to the proposal. The application was subject to public consultation, though no objections were raised. The proposal is therefore considered to be in accordance with Policy HQ1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan and Section 11 of Central Bedfordshire Design Guide 2023.Reasons for granting The application is a two-storey, large detached dwelling located in Milebush, Linslade.

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.
