Need some help please re planning permission!
We have permission to build our house, 2 bed 850 sq ft.
Once this is built & certified by builder & council as being okay, we plan to straight away go for a planning exempt extension at rear of the new house.
I have read the exemptions & understand I can go up to 40 sq m space, whilst having to keep 25 sq m garden.
I can also built out above the ground floor if I stay below 12 sq m.
I can match the height of the original house- i.e two storey height?
Ground floor extension will be bout 20 sqm. & I'm thinking when this is being built we go the whole hog & add the 12 sq m at first floor level.
This would make a huge difference to the size of the house for us.
Can anyone here tell me in absolute assurance that what I am considering would be exempt? Am I reading the rules correctly?
