Paragraph 79 of the National Planning Policy Framework
In exceptional circumstances this policy (now superseded by paragraph 80) permitted the development of individual homes in positions where houses of a typical design would not be permitted. In summary, for a dwelling to be of exceptional quality or innovative in its nature of design, it is required to pass the following tests:
• To help to raise the standards of design more generally in rural areas
• To be of the highest standards in architecture
• To significantly enhance the immediate setting
• To be sensitive to the defining characteristics of the local area
Accommodation
The approved internal design (P/2022/00838) offers six principal areas of accommodation, comprising formal and informal reception areas. The front door opens into a glazed reception room with site lines through the building and contains a reception seating area and formal dining room, both spaces having doors out to the gardens. This creates a dramatic open plan space at the heart of the accommodation which alone extends to about 1,400 sq ft. This area connects with a dining kitchen with extensive glazing providing an outlook to the east. A large sitting room has a fireplace and there is an adjoining snug and guest WC. A double height south wing provides further reception space including a drawing room opening onto a terrace and a library with mezzanine above. The ground floor also benefits from a boot room, utility room and two further guest cloakrooms. Flexible integral annexe accommodation includes two bedrooms, one of which is en suite, plus an accessible family bathroom, and an open plan living-dining kitchen.
The master suite includes a bedroom with southerly views, an en suite shower room, dressing area and first floor terrace.
