Our shoebox house is an end of terrace at the end of a cul-de-sac, the road is on the left hand side of the house and then comes round to a turning circle type set up at the front of the terrace.
We're hoping to do a 2 storey extension on the left hand side in the future (i.e. extending out to the pavement). Does anyone know if this 1m boundary clearance thing apply to all boundaries or just to those shared with other houses?
Due to the space we have available we wouldn't be able to sacrifice the 1m and have a realistic sized extension - the layout of the cul-de-sac means the extension wouldn't block anyones light or any lines of sight for people turning their cars round at the end of the cul-de-sac IYSWIM.
Having seen the prices of 3 beds in this areas and knowing we're going to be a one income family for a while I'm really wondering if we'll ever be able to move so need to know there is some hope of extending
