Core Planning Reasoning
The proposed modifications to a previously permitted dwelling are considered acceptable as they do not adversely impact the residential or visual amenities of the area, comply with the Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Development Plan 2022-2028, and provide an adequate standard of amenity for future residents.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The principle of a dwelling on this site has already been accepted under planning reference D20A/0471 / ABP-308255-20, and the proposed modifications do not significantly alter this established principle.
- The 0.5-metre increase in ridge height and the extension of the ground floor footprint are modest changes that will not result in undue overshadowing, overlooking, or overbearing impacts on adjacent properties.
- The proposed rear garden area of 48.5 sq.m complies with the minimum standards for a two-bedroom dwelling, ensuring a high standard of residential amenity.
