just got OPP

Hi all

we’re buying a plot on a site of 7 from a developer who will put in the roads and services. It’s down to us though to get DPP from the council and do the build.

It’s been a long time coming to get the OPP as the site is in an AONB in Cornwall, but we’re there now and we can start the detailed design and planning.

The OPP design spec says we have to build a dormer bungalow, so looking at the design now for a good size 3 bed.
Hoping to design and build something that will last us a long time and be expandable in the future if we need a downstairs bedroom for us, or a parent moving in.

Had the first drafts of design from the Architects but it needs some Adjustment, hoping to build more of a 1.5 storey house rather than a dormer bungalow, but not sure if the council see a difference?

Well done. Enjoy it, don’t turn it in to a nightmare, be realistic with timescale and cost and it will be fun. 

 

Excellent advice (I hope to be following it myself, before long).
