Garden space requirements may be a local authority demand.  Possibly to reduce the number of people living in a rental property.

Council said there's a min sqm of outdoor space per bedroom, for quality of life. 
i.e. 3bed is 100sqm+
2bed is 50sqm+
etc

I've no idea whether your intention to rent adds extra complexity - I wouldn't be too surprised if it did.

If this were to be your own family home, properly insured, and you knew there were no issues - ventilation, fire egress etc. - as a result of what you've done, then almost certainly there would be no comeback. And if there were, it would be, "Sort it out, pal, or we'll take action..."

However, renting it out... No idea. 3 bedrooms is presumably not a HMO? I have no idea about the requirements, but I wouldn't be surprised if this would be a more significant breach should it come to light. You'd be declaring it as a 3-bed, knowing it is not.
