Choosing a
conservatory -
What to look for |
|
|
| |
"A conservatory can bring endless
pleasure..."
If well chosen it will - create more living space, allow you to enjoy the changes of natural sunlight, give you a relaxing environment, enhance your home's exterior and interior, and at the same time increase the value of your property -it's often the most affordable way of getting extra room in your home too...
| • Planning permission |
|
|
|
Most small conservatories do not require planning consent, especially if your design is: |
|
- not higher than the tallest part of the roof line of your house and not on the front elevation.
- less than 70 cubic metres - or less than 15% of the volume of the original house, or if built on to a terraced house less than
50 cubic metres - less than 10% of the house's original volume.
- not higher than 4 metres and located more than 2 metres from your boundaries.
- not going to take the extended area to over 50% of the garden.
- not planned for a listed building or in a conservation area.
