We are currently in the process of selling our house and have found a bungalow we really like. We would be keen to extend the current L-shape and square it off in a single storey extension; however to do so it would require us extending the front, bringing the front door forward ideally and adding 1-2 extra rooms as part of the single storey extension. I can’t see any information on front bungalow development so I’m really wondering; - would we need to get planning permission to square off the bungalow in a single storey front extension (not exceeding current front boundary but bringing front door and extra 1-2 rooms alongside the living room) - would we have any potential issues with 45 degree rule etc? As per the second picture the neighbouring property might be affected but I was thinking if we only extended one room, to roughly where my partner is in the photo, 45 degree angle shouldn’t be an issue? Thanks so much! Keen to get a feeling before we bid on this property, thank you Craig
