I live in West Dublin, fast track planning permission was given to a large developer for a infill site behind our house.
As part of the development, 8m from our back fence there will be a 3 storey duplex which will be 11m high and will be sideways facing to our property. Our gardens are small so the building will be approximately 20m from the back wall of our house. It will have a balcony which will overlook our garden and when built if you are standing on it you will be able look directly into our children's bedrooms.
We did not realize the scale of the building or how close it would be until building work actually began.
Do we have any recourse to appeal planning permission, as in require the developers to use frosted glass for any windows that overlook our garden and to have a screen on the side of the balcony which would give us some privacy?
TIA
Chris
