Hello again,

Can anyone confirm if Juliet Balconies come under Permitted Development?

I'm in England, have been told that they are not permitted under permitted development however I discovered this when researching. The fact that this appeal was allowed implies that they do come under permitted development.

http://www.permitteddevelopment.org/Appeal-Decision-47.html

Summary of Case (appeal allowed)

The first key issue was whether the proposed Juliette balcony would be contrary to Class A, part A.1(i), which states that !!!8220;Development is not permitted by Class A if !!!8230; (i) it would consist of or include !!!8230; (i) the construction or provision of a veranda, balcony or raised platform !!!8230;!!!8221;

Main Conclusion:
A !!!8220;Juliette balcony!!!8221; is not a !!!8220;balcony!!!8221; for the purposes of the GPDO, and therefore is permitted development.[Relevant to: !!!8220;Juliette balconies!!!8221;, A.1(i), B.1(d), E.1(g)].

The Inspector noted that the Juliette balcony would have not have a platform !!!8220;stated that !!!8220;the provision of a balustrade where no external access is permitted under Class B!!!8221;.

I wish to have one in my dormer conversion instead of the typical windows. Full plan application has been approved by borough council however I now want the Juliet internal opening doors if I can instead of the proposed dormer windows. The dormer will be 200cm high, can I get one for this height?

Thank you.
