99-101 Clouds Hill Road Bristol PLANNING APPRAISAL
The design would need to ensure that adjacent gardens were not overlooked. With careful consideration, the existing trees in neighbouring land could be used as effective screening. There could also be potential for further development subject to negotiations with adjacent landowners, to free up some additional space. The proximity of the site to bus stops, local amenities including shops, schools and St Georges Park make it a very sustainable location which means that future residents of the properties would not need to rely on the use of a car and would be considered sustainable by the Council. 4. DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL As one of the dwellings on the Clouds Hill Road frontage is completely derelict this would need to be rebuilt. A planning permission would be required for this work, however the principle of a dwelling in this location is clearly established. There would be scope for a larger building to be constructed on the plot. The adjacent building to the west is particularly deep with no windows so this provides scope for an apartment scheme development of 4-6 apartments. However, this would need to be carefully considered in conjunction with developing the rear of the site. There would also be potential to extend to the rear of the more complete property. Consideration would need to be given to ensure that there was no substantial over- shadowing of the property to the east. Windows would also need to be primarily restricted to the rear elevations.
