This proposal was for the construction of two double storey dwellings with a shared driveway. Both dwellings include four bedrooms, open plan living/dining areas and generous areas of secluded open space.

Keen Planning managed the planning permit application process through Council. The main challenges that we resolved were the scale of the development, the perceived lack of articulation at the upper storeys, amenity impacts caused by overlooking associated with the upper storey habitable areas and the ability of vehicles to manoeuvre on-site.

Despite two objections, Council determined to support the proposal and following the notice period, the planning permit was issued.
