Double garage and extensions proposed at Hunter Lodge

ImpactAutomated estimate

Summary

The proposal would partly demolish the existing single garage and replace it with a detached double garage. Single-storey extensions are also proposed at the rear and side of the bungalow. Startforth Morritt Memorial Church of England Primary School is directly adjacent. Two protected old buildings at Startforth Hall are about a 1-minute walk away. Only three property fronts within a couple of minutes' walk have a direct view of the site. Another 29 are screened by buildings, although some rear windows or gardens may still have views.
