New bungalow could pop up in back garden -- all the latest Mansfield plans
Extensions, demolitions, installations and the construction of a new bungalow in a back garden all feature in the latest bundle of planning applications received by Mansfield District Council.
The two-bedroom bungalow, complete with garden, patio area, two car-parking spaces and two cycle spaces, is proposed for land on Southwell Road East in Rainworth.
The land currently forms the back garden of number 88, which is also a two-bed detached bungalow and sold at auction last November.
The site, spanning 243 square metres, faces Nursery Gardens, from where access to the new property would be created, according to a planning statement that accompanies the application, which has been submitted by Ian Marsh.


The statement, prepared by James Beardall, boss of Mansfield firm Replan Architects Ltd, says: “The proposal would provide a high-quality dwelling in a sustainable location (half-a-mile from the centre of Rainworth) which integrates well with the surrounding residential area and would not cause a detriment to highway safety.
"The bungalow would positively enhance the biodiversity value of the plot and provide a welcome addition to the streetscape.”
The council’s planning officers are currently considering the scheme and have set a deadline date of Monday, November 9 for a decision or recommendation.
