Retrospective office use at 65 Westfield Lane

ImpactAutomated estimate

Summary

The applicant seeks permission to keep using a detached house as an office. The change has already happened, so the council would assess the office use now in place.

Homes stand directly adjacent to the east and north. Six property fronts have a clear view of the site, while 208 are screened by buildings. Kippax Greenfield Primary School is about a 5-10 minute walk away.

The main questions may be how many people use the office and how they travel. Office hours, deliveries, noise and parking could affect nearby homes.

What the council wrote

Retrospective Change of use of dwelling to an office (Use Class E (g) (i))
