Summary
The owner wants to convert the loft into living space by raising the roof and adding three windows at the back of the house. A new porch is also proposed at the front. The house is a detached home built between 1950 and 1966 on Windsor Road in Lawn, Swindon. Lawn Primary School is right next door, a few steps away. Most neighbouring properties are shielded by other buildings, with only one property to the south-west having a direct view of the site. The works would add usable space to an existing home rather than building a new one. Construction would involve scaffolding and roof works, which could cause some short-term noise and disruption near the school.
