Bid to double number of bedrooms at HMO -- all the latest Mansfield plans
An attempt to double the number of bedrooms at an HMO is among the latest package of planning applications received by Mansfield District Council.
The property, at 2 Tennyson Street, currently operates as a three-bedroom, three-person HMO (house in multiple occupation).
But the proposal now on the table is to convert it into a six-bedroom, six person home thanks to internal alterations and a reconfiguration of the layout.
The applicant is Jessica Cleary, 24-year-old boss of the Huddersfield-based company, JNC Property Ventures Ltd, while her agent for the scheme is Adam Jones, of Peter Philip Architecture and Design, based in Nottingham.


Planning papers say the project requires only a lawful development certificate, rather than a full change of use, because the maximum number of residents allowed (six) in HMOs would not be exceeded.
If it gets the go-ahead, drawings suggest there would be two bedrooms and a communal kitchen on the ground floor of the building, three bedrooms on the first floor and one bedroom in the loft space.
The application says: “The work would include internal alterations to the existing floor layouts, and the formation and alteration of internal partitions and door openings.
"Additional bedrooms and en-suite accommodation would be provided, while alterations would me made to the communal kitchen and ancillary accommodation.”


The council’s planning officers are currently considering the proposal and have set a deadline date of Tuesday, November 17 to make a decision or recommendation.
