Now we have planning permission, I can show you how the house is going to look. The huge amount of potential space for a side extension is probably now apparent - imagine if we'd built to the planner's suggestion of knocking down the porch instead....
From the front you'll notice the cedar wood cladding removed and replaced with smooth render. The windows are replaced, the garage is demolished and rebuilt as a longer and wider structure with that highly contentious first floor extension jutting out by a metre above it (the two windows there are bathrooms). The porch is re-glazed and has a new pitched roof and oak door. There's also only one chimney stack where currently there are two.
The garage door won't look like that - it will be smooth and operated by remote control - have glorious visions of self driving into it during snowstorms and entering house through the utility room, where muddy boots can be deposited...
