Quad Garage in Rear Garden – via Permitted Development & Planning Appeal (2033)

Developers do not have Permitted Development rights on dwellings that are under construction.

The PD right is reserved for the Homeowner when the property has become occupied.

Garden Buildings are generally limited to 2.5m to the top of the roof surface at eaves with mono-pitch up to  3m or dual pitch up to 4m. This differs from the 3m to the top of the roof surface at eaves on house extensions. Yes! attached house extensions can be taller and closer to the boundary than garden buildings.

Here we looked to push the height terms of a pitched roof in place of a permitted development mono-pitched roof was granted at Planning  Appeal via Permitted Development rights.

Eventually, we had a planning approval!

The Garage is built over a previously installed Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SUDS) chamber that was requested for surface water runoff for the newly built large dwelling.
