Elliot Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Our single extension wall is set to an inward angle. The previous owners did this to preserve the garage. As part of the downstairs remodel I'm going to do, I want to straighten the extension wall inline with the rest of the house. The angle is very shallow and it's likely the end of the wall would only move 20cms. We have an architect doing some hand drawings to help with the downstairs layout and he thinks we will need to get planning permission to move the wall. I don't really understand why this wouldn't be covered under permitted development. The existing extension is 3 metres and so within the permitted development guidelines of 3 meters. Moving the wall would only line it up to the side of the house and so would not extend beyond the original house side wall, which is another stipulation for permitted development. I really want to make the wall straight but planning would be a lot of effort for the sake of gaining 20cm. It would be great to hear what you guys think.
