Permitted Development

[Jamier]

I am in the process of purchasing a dormer bungalow and wondered if I could remove the roof, add a 2nd storey and replace the roof (with rooms) under permitted development thus making a 2 storey house with loft conversion.  I've look on the net but cant find anything that covers this particular scenario.

 

Thanks in advance

Pretty sure that’s a no

No you would need planning consent  Here is the guidance:

As @Temp mentioned, that could be deemed as PD via the Prior Approval scheme.
