Summary

The owner wants to knock down the side garage and build a large extension on the side and back of the house, going partly one storey and partly two storeys high. The roof would change from a hip shape to a gable, with a big dormer window at the back. Three small roof windows at the front and a new porch are also proposed.

The house is a 1930s semi-detached on Castleton Avenue in Wembley Hill. Three primary schools are within a few minutes' walk. Properties right next door to the east and south could be most affected during building work.

If approved, the works would significantly enlarge the house and change how it looks from the street and from neighbouring gardens. Around 16 nearby property frontages have a direct view of the site. Most other homes are shielded by buildings between them.
