The condition applies to both dwellings. This has been confirmed by the owner. The LPA planning policy re extensions: House extensions and alterations will be permitted provided they would not cause unacceptable harm to the amenities of neighbouring occupiers. Documents are here: https://pa.bristol.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=documents&keyVal=NBS3KCDN06900 L

Thanks Alan, Re drawings, you got it right. I was drafting the post and for some reason that last drawing at the bottom slipped through... I agree with you that it is probably safe to assume that the LPA won't approve any further extensions and make the decision on the house based on that. Btw, good luck on getting PD rights reinstated. I don't know about your property but on this one it seems that there isn't a great case to make in order to have them reinstated... L

*Please disregard last plan **Forgot to add another question sorry. 4. Will the house be difficult to sell in the future due to no PD rights?

Hello chaps, I have recently joined the forum and was wondering if you could help me out here. I have had an offer accepted for a freehold house where Bristol City Council is the Local Planning Authority. After doing some research, it turns out that the house a substantial planning history. The House was originally semi-detached, however the developers who own it, built a two storey extension after obtaining planning permission and subsequently another planning permission was granted to "Proposed conversion of two storey side extension into a 2 bedroom house and erection of front porch". In reading the last application, I have come across the following condition: This effectively revokes Permitted Development rights and every extension and addition to the roof would need to go through the formal planning process. Pic showing original semi-detached house I intend to buy: Current picture showing newly constructed 2 bed house (left) + house I intend to buy (right) Plan showing new 2 bed house, house I intend to buy and desired 1 story extension I have a number of questions here: Is it worth pursuing the purchase although it is likely that the property doesn´t have permitted development rights and will be virtually impossible to eliminate the condition? If so, what % of the agreed price would be reasonable to ask the buyer to drop? Given that the condition of no further extensions has been imposed due to the construction of the extension and separation into two dwellings. If I decided to purchase the house, would I be likely to get approval to build a 1 story extension for the kitchen and living room (marked red on the plan under House I intend to buy)? Are there any other things that I should consider / worry about? Many thanks in advance. Please let me know if you would like further info / something is not clearl. L

Hi Everyone, My name is Luis and I am looking to buy a house and put work on it. I have been lurking around for some time and have now decided to become a member. Hopefully I will be able to learn a lot from you.
