Retrospective Change of Use for Part of the Dwellinghouse to Operate as a Short-Term Let Accommodation

The client approached Planning By Design regarding the retrospective change of use for part of the dwellinghouse to operate as a short-term let accommodation.

Following a planning appraisal with one of our chartered town planners, it was determined that the existing use was lawful and that a retrospective application for a Certificate of Lawfulness was the most appropriate course of action.

One of our chartered architects produced the required architect drawings, which the client approved. Following approval of the architect design one of our chartered town planners has prepared the required Planning Statement / Evidence to verify application to justify why the application should be approved. With the client's approval, the architect drawings, Planning Statement / Evidence to verify the application and retrospective planning application were submitted.

A Certificate of Lawfulness for the retrospective change of use for part of the dwellinghouse to operate as short-term let accommodation (existing use) has now been granted.
