Ranelagh Gardens Redbridge IG1 3JP
I am submitting this application for full planning permission for a single-storey rear extension at 52B Ranelagh Gardens, Cranbrook, Ilford, IG1 3JP. The proposed extension will have a depth of 6.00 metres and a maximum height of 3.00 metres. This application seeks to extend the previously approved rear extension (Planning Ref: 1690/24) from a depth of 5.055 metres to 6.00 metres. The original application was granted approval, and this current proposal represents a modest increase of 0.945 metres beyond the approved scheme. Prior to submitting this application, I also engaged in a pre-application enquiry under reference PO207/25. In the written response, Case Officer Terrence Leung stated under the section titled “What aspects are acceptable in planning terms” that: “The additional depth of 0.95m itself will not materially cause any worse impact in terms of visual or neighbouring amenities.” This professional assessment strongly supports the view that the proposed increase in depth would not result in any significant or harmful impacts on the character of the area or the amenity of neighbouring properties. The extension has been designed to remain in keeping with the existing building and surrounding context, maintaining appropriate scale and appearance. The height and overall form remain within acceptable residential design limits, and the proposal does not result in any adverse effects on daylight, outlook, or privacy for adjoining neighbours. In light of the previous approval and the positive feedback received during the pre-application process, I trust that this modest revision will be viewed favourably by the planning department.
