King's Lynn, Norfolk.
Planning Application submitted for a bespoke swimming pool and glazed link.
Following an initial consultation with the applicants it was decided to add a new swimming pool and glazed link to provide access from the main unit (which is itself a barn conversion) in the existing style of the amin unit and area itself. The glazed link provides a more contemporary residential adjunct but at En-Plan we are great believers in the concept that old and new can sit side by side and compliment each other. We will be posting updates as the project progresses from concept to the completion.
The Planning Application is for a part-detached enclosed swimming pool, with a glazed internal link walkway joining it to the existing dwelling. The building will match the materials and built style of the existing dwelling. The site is well set-back from the road and the proposed building would not be visible from any public points of view. The site is fairly well screened on all sides by vegetation and 1.2m post and rail fencing. Overall, the character and appearance of the area will be preserved. The Planning Department agreed with this and found the application acceptable in this respect.
As there are no residential neighbours close enough to experience any impacts. The closest neighbouring dwelling would lie approximately 50m away from the proposed building. As such gthe propsoed application has no impact on residential amenity in the locality.
The drainage arrangements for the foul pool water are considered acceptable. The holding tank will be sufficient to accommodate backwash water flows and the soakaway proposed will be adequate to safely disperse the treated water into the ground. It is considered the proposal would not result in any increased flood risk and the process proposed would sufficiently mitigate ground water contamination concerns.
