H5 - Flats, Bed-sitters and Shared Housing H10 - Development in Housing Areas H14 - Conditions on Development in Housing Areas This informative is intended as a summary of the reasons for grant of planning permission.

The proposal involves excavation of part of the front garden to expose the basement where new window openings are to be placed. The application site is at 24 Victoria Road which is a large detached stone-built property located in the leafy suburb of Broomhall. The property which is currently in use as three self-contained flats/apartments is set within an established garden with an “s”-shaped drive curling across the front garden. The drive serves a large hard surfaced car parking area at the rear of the building. The car parking area can accommodate approximately 6 vehicles. In addition to the hard-surfaced car parking area, there is also a single brick-built garage (used for storage purposes) 8 and a small raised grassed area. The small raised grassed area is enclosed by a one-foot high picket fence. Although the property stands elevated from the street level, it is fairly well screened from Victoria Road because of the existing mature landscaping within the front garden. Despite, part of the basement being exposed at the front, the property has a general appearance of being a two-storey building. A semi-concealed coal chute at the front of the property provides limited access (via a few steps) to the basement. The proposals envisage part of the front garden area being excavated to expose the basement and then by introducing new window openings in the exposed basement, natural lighting and improved ventilation would be possible for the basement rooms. The proposal also involves some excavation works being carried out at the side of the property (in the side garden adjacent to number 22 Victoria Road). This would enable a new access door to be created, allowing independent access to the basement accommodation. The level of accommodation being created as a result of the works would be:- - A self contained basement flat with a double bedroom, open plan kitchen/living room and a separate bathroom/toilet room. - Two ground floor self-contained flats, each flat having an open plan kitchen/living room, two bedrooms (each having a double and single bedroom) and each having a separate bathroom. - Two first floor self-contained flats, each flat having a kitchen/living room, separate bathrooms. One of the flats has two bedrooms (a double and a single) and the other flat only has one double bedroom. - At second floor level i.e. in the roof space, there is a further self-contained flat accommodating an open plan living/kitchen room, a separate bathroom and two separate double bedrooms. With the exception of the basement flat which has a new separate access (on the gable), and the two ground floor flats which each have a new access from each of the gable elevations, all the remaining flats (i.e. the two flats on the first floor level and the flat in the roof space) take their access via an internal staircase which would be accessed from the front of the property.
