Planning application
51 Whitecliffe View Chepstow Monmouthshire NP16 5WJ
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within five years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
We wish to make some small additions to our house constructed in 2024 and we need permission from the developer. They have asked us to check that planning permission is not required for the following: A. Solar panels on south facing roof B. Ariston air source heat pump on wall of house adjacent to our driveway and more than 1m from property boundary. C. 2 solar batteries on wall of house adjacent to our driveway. D. Very small shed behind garage in our back garden about 1m x 2m and 2.5m high. E. Wooden bin store, 124 cm wide ? 104 cm high ? 52 cm deep, next to the house and adjacent to our driveway. The property is not listed nor in a conservation area so I believe everything would be classed as permitted development but I would be grateful if you confirm this for us.

Installation of Air Source Heat Pump in the back garden. This will replace the gas boiler and mean the property, through the purchase of renewable electricity, will run on entirely renewable energy, reducing the carbon footprint of heating and power to zero. The property is end-terrace and the heat pump will be fitted at ground level approximately 1 metre away from the boundary (wooden fence) of the adjoining property and about 2 metres from the nearest window - a patio door. It is about 4 metres from the nearest bedroom window. The existing pipework will be used so there should be no alterations to the exterior of the building other than the entry point behind the ASHP. The ASHP model is: Daikin Altherma 3 Low Capacity Monobloc EDLA-E 4kW
