Do you need planning permission for a bungalow rear extension in Limavady?
Planning for a bungalow rear extension in Limavady follows the Northern Irish householder rules.
Northern Ireland's permitted development rules allow a single-storey rear extension of 3 metres on terraced and semi-detached houses and 4 metres on detached houses, with a 4 metre height limit. Listed buildings, conservation areas and houses with removed rights need planning permission from the council.
Northern Ireland has no larger-extension prior approval route; anything beyond permitted development needs a planning application.
Conservation areas, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and listed buildings restrict permitted development in Northern Ireland. At the first visit we measure what is there now and tell you which route fits: permitted development or a planning application.
What are homes in Limavady like to extend?
