Two story self-build. we may have to reduce ceiling height to 2.4m and pitch to 25-30 degrees to comply with condition on house height. just wondering where we can save...
Hi Cubic Yard,
We've just been down this route with the planners. We were limited in height also and I was adamant that I wanted to go into my attic - I just can't stomach have a void up above my head and not having access to it -if only for the occasional visitor.
Anyway, we're going to cut into our site - just a little but enough to comply with the conditions. Have you actually got you planning permission yet? If so, can you provide alittle more detail and I may be able to help. What size is your house? What size and level is your site (I ask that because if you have a reasonably large site, you may not even notice digging down 50-70cm.
Also, I got a contour survey done by an engineer - pain on the wallet but felt better after I saw the results - means we only have to dig down 30am on one side - large site so hopefully it won't take from the house asthetically.
