Summary
The owner has applied to significantly extend a detached house on Lakeside in Old Town, Swindon. The proposal includes a new first floor addition, a single storey rear extension, a single storey front extension, and dormer windows to both the front and rear. The house is a detached home built between 1967 and 1975, with a floor area of 236 square metres. Only a couple of nearby properties have a direct view of the site — most surrounding homes are shielded by other buildings. If approved, the work could increase the size of the home considerably, adding more living space on both the ground and first floor.
