Permission was granted for a single-storey extension to the rear of 39 Samuel Webb Crescent, Douglas, Isle of Man. The property is a two-storey semidetached side-gabled house on the east side of Samuel Webb Crescent, with a two-tier rear garden. The application was assessed against three main planning considerations: the effect on the house itself, the character and streetscene of the surrounding area, and the amenities of neighbouring residents. All three were found to be acceptable. The decision was made under delegated authority and one condition was attached to the approval.

The Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture approved the application on 10 September 2025. The key planning considerations were the impact on the house itself, the character and streetscene of the area, and the amenities of neighbouring properties, all of which were found to be acceptable.
