112, Summerhill Road, Onchan, Isle Of Man, IM3 1nj
This application sought permission to alter and extend 112 Summerhill Road, Onchan — a three-storey mid-terraced dwelling finished in painted render with a natural slate pitched roof — to provide an integral garage with living accommodation above. The officer's report identified three main planning issues: whether the type of development was appropriate for the location, whether the design and massing were in keeping with the existing property and the wider street scene, and whether neighbouring amenities would be harmed. The application was permitted on 16 May 2013 through delegated decision, consistent with the officer's recommendation to approve. The determining body is recorded as Delegated.
The application was permitted on 16 May 2013 under delegated authority. The officer recommended approval, and the decision aligns with that recommendation. The key planning considerations were whether the garage with living accommodation above was appropriate for the location, whether the design and massing suited the existing property and street scene, and whether neighbouring amenities would be adversely affected.
Extensions and alterations to existing residential property will generally not be opposed where such proposals are appropriate in terms of scale, massing, design, appearance and impact on adjacent property.
the planning application is concluded to accord to the provisions of Policy O/RES/P/21 of the Onchan Local Plan 2000
As a general policy, in built up areas not controlled by Conservation Area or Registered Building policies, there will be a general presumption in favour of extensions to existing property where such extensions would not have an adverse impact on either adjacent property or the surrounding area in general.
