Dear posters
Firstly a great website / forum - I have already found invaluable information on many threads - thank you.
I'm looking for advice on the following situation - an uncle of my wife's has recently given us a site and told us to seek planning permission on it. The site is situated between my wife's father and her uncle and both of them have, unfortunately, been widowed recently. My wife and I spend a large amount of time with them as a result of these circumstances and building there would be in our interests as well as theirs.
We currently own a house about 6 miles away but would love to be closer to both of them. My wife qualifies under local needs(teaches nearby, lived locally all her life); however we are concerned that our application for planning permission would be rejected straight away as we already own a house. Do you think there is a good chance of our application being rejected on these grounds?
thanks in advance
