Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the extended summer house constitutes a material change of use to a dwelling or remains incidental to the enjoyment of the main dwellinghouse
- Whether the extensions were substantially completed before the four-year limitation period expired
- Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach
- Whether the time given to comply with the notice is too short
What decided it
The extended summer house contains facilities (kitchen, living room, two bedrooms, bathroom) that would normally be accommodated in the main dwelling and therefore cannot be considered incidental to its enjoyment, constituting a material change of use to a dwelling.
