132A Pakefield Street Lowestoft Suffolk NR33 0JS
93% historically approved · decision due ~4 Jul
The property has an existing single storey to the rear and is is proposed to simply add a further storey over this footprint to create an upstairs bedroom for family use. The property is somewhat unusual in that it is classed as "semi-detached" but in fact there is no party wall and this property (132A) and the neighbouring property (134) are separated by a small (say 4") air gap. The materials proposed for the upper storey extension will entirely match the materials of the existing building and external facades will be identical to existing structure.
