the development consists of Permission consequent on the grant of Outline Permission (23966) for the construction of a part two-storey, part single-storey dwelling house, new wastewater treatment system and percolation area, new entrance onto public road and all associated works and Permission for development consisting of the construction of a detached domestic garage

Refused

Core Refusal Reason

The proposed development fails to comply with the Meath Rural Design Guide due to its suburban appearance and inappropriate scale, and includes a detached garage not authorized by the underlying outline permission.

Decision Maker's Conclusion

  • The design and layout of the proposed dwelling are considered suburban in appearance and do not accord with the Meath Rural Design Guide in terms of bulk, height, and massing.
  • The inclusion of a detached domestic garage in the application is inconsistent with the previous grant of outline permission (Reg. Ref. 23/966), which did not provide for such a structure.
  • The applicant has not demonstrated compliance with specific conditions of the outline permission, particularly regarding the provision of a pedestrian linkage and the identification of surface water soak pit locations.
