Agent Note

1. Space Assessment

The front garden currently has a small fenced area with a short wall.

Two standard parking spaces require approx. 4.8m x 4.8m minimum (ideally 5m x 5m).

2. Access

You’d need to apply for a dropped kerb (vehicle crossover) from the local council.

Dropped kerb approval depends on:

Width of pavement, whether there are street furniture, lamp posts, or trees in the way.

3. Design Options

Full Driveway Conversion:

Remove front wall, fence, and gate.

Pave the entire front garden with permeable block paving, resin bound gravel, or reinforced grass.

Add edging and possibly a small planted strip to retain greenery.

Single Bay + Overlap:

If space is limited, you could fit two smaller cars side by side, but it may be tight.

Alternatively, tandem parking (one behind the other) if the depth allows.

Permeable surfacing (or drainage to soakaway) is required under planning rules for front gardens >5m2.

Planning permission may be needed if the dropped kerb affects a classified road.
