Unauthorised Alterations and Additions to 57 Ennisdale Drive

ProposalDescription: 

Proposed Alterations and Additions to Lot 2623 being 57 Ennisdale Drive, Durban North, Ethekwini, KwaZulu-Natal, Drawing no., WD 2018

Expanded_Motivation: 

The alterations and additions match the existing elements where amended. The new light-weight external carport is the only alien element that reads as a more contemporary material addition. This is positioned centrally and inbetween the existing structures of the granny flat and main house. The main structure maintains the red facebrick plinth surround, as well as the decorative 'tudor' elements on the elevations. The existing timber lattice screen has been removed off the side of the existing veranda, a structure that was also introduced as an extension of the original structure. It is my opinion that there is no significtant historical value that has been altered with under the current proposal and look forward to receiving a favourable response and Amafa's approval of these proposed amendments.The building is a family home that has required tailoring as the family has matured over time. Under the current application, the main structure has had very little cosmetic amendment, and only includes the resizing of some windows and the bricking up of others. The clip-on covered carport replaces the garages that have been altered into a granny flat under previous approved application. The removal of a timber lattice element off the side of the veranda (which was an addition under previous application), is simply not required as a privacy screen element anymore.
