16/AP/4796 | 2 LOVE WALK, LONDON, SE5 8AD
Rebuild of rear extensions – this two-storey building is next door to, and blighted by, the four storey Jennie Lee House, part of King's College Hospital. The proposal extends out to the rear of the house replacing the existing rear extensions and side garage with a sensibly arranged layout for modern living. At first floor an improved bedroom and bathroom layout.
The proposals also include a separate end of garden studio building, which seems well designed.
The first-floor outrigger extension has a gable end and typical double pitched roof. This makes the boundary gutter impossible to maintain from within the property and reliant on neighbourly access. The present first floor outrigger roof falls to the back of the property.
The outrigger is wider than the existing, so the existing staircase window is lost. There is space to add a new window off centre, or a rooflight, which has not been taken.
The proposals do not affect the front façade of the building within Love Walk, and the matching No 4.
The society has no objection.
