A new two storey front extension is proposed with a zinc apex roof incorporating a porch at ground floor level- with obscured glass to the family bathroom at first floor. An extension is proposed, glazed on three sided to the south east elevation. This glazed extension, forms a dining area to a new kitchen with a solid zinc roof.
