ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
1. Section 15.10.1 'Alterations and Extensions to Dwellings' of the Monaghan County Development
Plan 2025-2031 stipulates that contemporary designed dwelling extensions should not detract from
the visual amenities of the main dwelling. In this regard, the Planning Authority has the following
specific design concerns with the proposed extension;
(i) the proposed 'vertical painted timber cladding' as the predominant external wall finish. It is
considered that this external wall finish does not complement the main dwelling,
particularly where it is used on principal elevations (i.e. the front elevation and side/gable
elevations), and is not in keeping with the character of the surrounding area.
(ii) the scale, design and proportions of the proposed 'dormer with metal cladding' on the front
elevation. The proposed dormer window should be simplified to appear less dominant with
a more proportionate opening.
The applicant is requested to provide amended drawings to take account of the above and
demonstrate a more appropriate design which complements the main dwelling and is more in
keeping with the established character of the surrounding area.
2. Section 15.10.1 'Alterations and Extensions to Dwellings' of the Monaghan County Development
Plan 2025-2031 stipulates extensions shall not have a material negative impact upon the residential
amenities of adjoining dwellings or their private open space, in terms of overlooking. In this regard,
the Planning Authority would have overlooking concerns with the proposed extensions first floor
window serving the master bedroom walk-in wardrobe area due to its position, height and the
difference in levels between the application site and the neighbouring property on adjoining lands
to the west. The applicant is therefore requested to submit revised drawings to address same and
demonstrate full compliance with aforementioned Section 15.10.1 'Alterations and Extensions to
Dwellings'.
