We are excited to have received a Planning Permit for a single storey extension to an existing dwelling in a Heritage Overlay, in Balwyn North.
Designed by John Demos Architects, this extension accommodates a Rooming House with five private rooms each equipped with a bedroom, bathroom and living area and communal facilities in the form of a shared kitchen, dining and living area, and laundry.
Despite the land being affected by a Single Dwelling Covenant, we successfully demonstrated to the City of Boroondara that the proposed Rooming House did not breach the restrictive covenant by referencing pertinent Supreme Court decisions to support our position.
We wish our client all the best with their future build.
