Hip to gable loft conversion with rear dormer proposed at semi-detached home in Romford

ImpactAutomated estimate

Summary

The owner of 24 Fontayne Avenue wants to convert the loft into usable living space. The work involves changing the roofline from a hip roof to a gable end, adding a dormer at the back, and fitting roof windows at the front. The property is a semi-detached house built between 1950 and 1966, with a floor area of 100 square metres. The nearest homes are about 7 metres to the east and 12 metres to the west. The council is being asked to confirm the work falls within rules that normally allow this type of change without full planning permission. No major disruption to the street is expected.
