Planning appeal decision
Foxwell Cottage, Hunts Hill Road, Normandy, GUILDFORD, GU3 2AH
Proposal to change the existing garage with a bedroom above it to an annexe with additional area approximately 5m x 5.8m area to the west gable of the garage and 1m x 5m area to the south aspect of the existing garage. Another part of the proposal is to add an extension to the east elevation of 3m x 6m housing of the ground source pump and an outside covered area for shelter. This ground source heat pump will serve both the main house and the proposed annexe. The proposed floor plan has an added footprint of less than 20 percent of the existing footprint. The proposal of roofline is 800mm higher than the existing garage with bedroom above and the new additional gables are 300mm below the new ridge line. This is 700mm lower than the main house
