[QUOTE="theboytheboy, post: 4803856, member: 3504"] Hi all, wondering if anyone can help with a question. Apologies in advance for the waffle but hopefully it gives the background info...... We have a semi detached cottage and our neighbors have recently done a very large extension and now have planning for a garden office/store. We have no problem with this and would like to do similar ourselves. We are located in a national park (if that makes a difference) We currently have tenants in our cottage and are happy with them there. However in the future we would like to do the extension which would create a big enough building to "split" into two houses which myself and my sister could move into ( we may not officially split them as have been told that the planners do not like this) If we got planning for the extension and a new timber framed garage how long do we have before we have to start the work? I would like to get permission, do the minimum to "lock it in" and allow us to come back to it if and when our tenants move on and we are ready to move back to the farm. My understanding is its 3 years, but have been told that we could just do the footings and this would count as a start. However the planning consultant has told me that this is no longer the case and we would need to at least have the shell up. Questions are: What is the minimum work in terms of disruption to existing tenants we can do in order to be seen to have started? Could building the garage count (as long as it was part of the same planning application?) [/QUOTE]
