CURRENT RESEARCH CONCLUSION

Resolve planning and parking before valuing an extension.

An advertised three-bedroom semi with an expired extension-consent claim. Council minutes identify the application and record a parking objection. That is a useful investigation lead, but the final decision, conditions and exact listing address still need checking.

Agent-supplied portal particulars inspected in a browser; council planning minutes read. Final planning decision not obtained.

The deal case, tested

Parking is part of the proposed works

The May 2016 minutes record a two-storey side extension, single-storey front/rear extensions and demolition of the detached garage. Councillors requested refusal over inadequate parking. This was a consultee objection, not proof of the final planning outcome.

Completed-sale evidence

No matched completed-sale evidence established in this file. Finished value and buying margin remain unproven.

An asking price, postcode average or uncosted extension does not establish a completed-sale valuation.
