Summary
The applicant proposes to turn office space at 42 Oxford Street into one home. A roof window and new windows throughout are also proposed. The site is in York's protected historic centre. Ten protected old buildings are about a 1-minute walk away, while nearby properties are directly adjacent. Only 38 nearby property fronts have a clear view of the site. Most surrounding buildings block views, but new windows could still affect some close neighbours.
What you can do
You can comment through City of York Council and quote reference 26/01382/FUL. The council can consider privacy, noise, parking and effects on nearby historic buildings, but not changes to property prices.
