Proposed development
The proposed works include: demolition of semi derelict ground floor extension to the rear garden and reconstruction of same as part of the approved Croí Cónaithe (Towns) Fund, upgrade of all windows to improve the existing streetscape to the front with a more fitting design style, overall energy efficiency improvements on roof insulation and upgrade of the heating system. The nature of the proposed development is as follows: The proposed works would include generalised energy efficiency improvements, allow for a small accessible service toilet at ground level, multiple repairs to the building fabric and architectural gain to the streetscape through the replacement of the windows to the front elevation. The proposed extension is 3 sqm larger than the existing one and will have a non-accessible flat roof with skylights over the living/kitchen area. The rebuilt extension will replicate the same shape, massing and volume of the existing one and will not generate any overlooking or overshadowing issues to the adjacent properties. Size and scale: the existing area to be demolished is 16 sqm while the proposed is 19 sqm. The height of the proposed extension is approximately 0.65 mt. taller than the existing. Intended use: the extension will accommodate a brighter and more flexible space for the kitchen/living/dining and the substantial improvement to the enjoinment of the private amenity space to the garden as, at present, the bathroom to the rear is directly connected to the current kitchen and is in dire conditions in terms of heat loss through the old window frames and the damaged flat roof.
