Ground floor side return extension and new roof light proposed at Boundaries Road, Balham

ImpactAutomated estimate

Summary

The owner of 7 Boundaries Road wants to build a single-storey extension into the side return of the property and add a new window in the roof at the rear. This would create extra space on the ground floor and bring more light into the rear of the house. The property is on Boundaries Road in Balham, surrounded closely by other homes. Balham Station, a protected old building, is about a 1-minute walk away. There are around 39 homes and businesses with a direct view of the site, with most surrounding properties shielded by other buildings. A protected old building is nearby, and the council records show a heritage document may be needed. The area has shrink-swell ground conditions that could affect any new foundations.
