Obtaining the planning permission


Our next step was to submit a planning application for the new house.

We originally envisaged a single storey house but realised that the build costs in building on one level are much higher than a traditional two storey dwelling. It took us many weeks of researching and planning to eventually decide on a design which would have a minimum impact on the surroundings and would offer us sufficient and comfortable accommodation.

We submitted the plans in October 2009. The authorities asked for a little more information and on providing that our plans were accepted!
