New neighbours extension plans

[Greenfingeredsue]

Hi all

My current neighbour has died. Now probate is completed her house is being sold.

Her son has prospective buyers. He has mentioned in passing to me that they want to extend the property out the back. I am wondering wtf they can’t just buy a house that meets their needs?

The gardens are quite big so there’s plenty of room for them to do this. However, we don’t want them to.

We need a new shed, so my husband has suggested we build a new one with a greenhouse on their side right as near to the boundary as we can, next to the house.

We’ll do this once contracts have been exchanged so we don’’t scupper the sale, plus they would have to get planning permission.

My only concern is that the new neighbours could force us to dismantle them so the builders can work?

Our neighbours objected to our extension too ... ridiculous petty objections (they didn't like the colour of the bricks, they would prefer a different roof apex etc etc their large garden backed onto our large garden and they could only see it by standing on their fence!) it caused lots of stress, but the plans were eventually authorised and we have a fab extension. The neighbours are now known to everyone as petty twats and are ostracised.

I’d sooner have a potty mouth than be a mean spirited, spiteful, nasty, petty numpty like you.

What have I just read
