By using the PDR, specifically the new Class MA rules, we successfully gained consent to convert the existing shop to the front to a 1 bedroom flat. We also converted the house into a 6 bedroom HMO (all double with ensuite), by extended to the rear and creating a loft conversion. We faced many obstacles on delivering this project, however through effective management, project co-ordination and collaboration we created a beautiful product, fit for the 21st century renters.
