This application sought permission to replace an existing single-storey side extension at St George's Vicarage, 16 Devonshire Road, Douglas, with a two-storey extension. The site is the curtilage of a semi-detached house used as the vicarage to St George's Church, and at the time of the application the relevant part of the site contained a garage and a study. The officer recommended approval, finding that the proposed extension's form and detail were sympathetic to those of the existing building and that parking on the site would remain sufficient. The officer acknowledged some impact on the neighbouring property at No.14 in terms of the extension's closeness and size, but concluded this did not extend to any loss of privacy. The application was permitted on 25 May 2005 through delegated decision.
The application was permitted on 25 May 2005 under delegated authority. The officer found the extension's form and detail sympathetic to the existing building, parking would remain adequate, and while the extension would be close to and larger than the neighbouring property at No.14, it would not harm privacy.
