Birch Copse HouseThe house is situated at the end of a private track flanked by

mature oak trees and occupies a wonderful, private setting

with views over open fields. The orginal house dates from the

late 1800s, was added to in the 1980s and 1990s and now

provides extensive accommodation over two floors comprising

approximately 3220sq.ft.

The house adjoins private woodland and enjoys views over its

garden with a small stream. The land lies beyond and is let to a

farmer. The fields are bordered by fine mature trees including oak.

The grounds extend to approximately 32 acres in all.

PlanningIn November 2014 planning permission was granted (P14/V2040/

HH) for extensions to Birch Copse House amounting to 30% of its

existing volume.

In February 2015 the Council also granted a Certificate of

Lawfulness (Certificate is P14/V2709/LDP) that confirmed it

was lawful to extend the dwelling still further under permitted

development rights and to provide a new access from Chilswell

Lane.

Before April 15th 2015 works were commenced on part of the

permitted development works.

Oxford Architects are currently preparing a scheme to be

submitted for a replacement dwelling of a similar volume to

the extended dwelling provided for by the above permission/

certificate. The proposed new dwelling would be circa 457sqm/

4919sqft excluding the garage.
