A council report says: “The project includes demolishing the garage site to the rear to incorporate this space into the boundary of the property.
“This will allow the two-bedroom, semi-detached bungalow to be converted into a three/four-bedroom bungalow with wet-room and family kitchen-diner area.”
In presenting the report, Coun Sandra Peake, council portfolio holder for housing, said progress on the project would be recorded by the council’s housing stock management group.
