2 Sinclair Close, Little Melton, Norwich, NR9 3SB

Proposed single storey rear extension with pitched roof extending 5.6m from the rear wall of the original dwelling house, with a maximum height of 3.5m and an eaves height of 2.25m

Removal of condition 2 of original planning application 2004/2500/H dated 01/02/2005 to permit the legal and physical severance of the annexe allowing it to be utilised as an independant residential dwelling (C3) Condition Number(s): 2 Conditions(s) Removal: The original personal need for the annexe has permanently concluded as the applicant's grandmother is deceased. Over the last two decades, planning policies have changed fundamentally. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and the Greater Norwich Local Plan (GNLP) now strongly encourage making efficient use of existing footprints to optimize housing stock. Leaving this fully complete, self-contained residential unit permanently vacant during a housing shortage represents an inefficient use of local built infrastructure. The applicant requests the full removal of Condition 2 to permit the legal and physical severance of the annexe, allowing it to be utilized as an independent residential dwelling (Use Class C3). A permanent brick boundary wall has been erected between the properties to establish structural separation, and a dedicated fence partitions the rear garden to ensure both dwellings enjoy their own private outdoor amenity space. All vehicular parking remains entirely self-contained within the substantial front driveway at 47 School Lane.
