It is felt that there may be scope to build a garage within the rear garden, subject to the necessary consents, as it can be accessed from Chesterton Hall Crescent.
Agent's note: Although the proposed extension plans have been drawn-up by an architect, they have not been submitted to the planning department therefore no planning consent is currently in place.
