    Due to the plants at the front, I believe it's the house slightly to the down/right of the second blue (planning permission) blob that has that ... 'attic extension'. 

    If the house is the slightly upper/left blue blob one, then this is the planning permission. The position marker for RightMove is between those two houses. 



    The images on that application look nothing like this extension on stilts.

    Yes. Even the satellite images don't seem to show anything like the extension on stilts, but they are the same houses as the position given on Rightmove. It is possible that the position on Rightmove is wrong, but moving up and down the road I couldn't find anything that is a clear match. The property (no blue blob) above is my best guess for the property in the advertisement. If that is true (and it can easily be wrong), then there is no planning permission recorded on the portal for the property with the attic extension on stilts. (And, there can be multiple different reasons why there is no planning permission on the portal.)

    Ooh I like that, and how about that radiator :love: 
    I removed the shell from my racing snail, but now it's more sluggish than ever.

    “Offers on the asking price may be considered”???

    Over £1m spent on refurb, yet being sold for less than a third of that. Odd.

    The boat is a mere £285K, but it you want to keep the leased mooring, then it's £795K

    The EPC gives the name of the property. Different name to the one on that application.

    Yes. As per my post I was suggesting that it was the property next to that one that is more likely to be the one with the extension on stilts.

    The blob will always be at the centre of the post code. The actual house may not be near the blob.

    Just used the streetview link on the rightmove page https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/141891929#/?channel=RES_BUY. The house is called 'Ty Gwyn'. 'Rhos y garreg' is to its left and 'Gwaen y dderwn' to its right. You can see the offending extension from the road when positioned in front of either neighbour.

    Who needs to see the rest of the house? Just look at the kitchen. And again. And again.

    I don't even like it - way too industrial looking for my taste.

    And what is it with this trend for living rooms without fireplaces - they look like waiting rooms!
