Planning permission has been refused for a third time for a property developer seeking to build a modern house in Sandbanks, Dorset, the Daily Mail reported. Businessman Mark Perkins wants to demolish an 825,000 pound chalet bungalow to construct a three-storey home with a flat roof. [1]
According to the Daily Mail, neighbouring residents Lesley and Robert Jefferies strongly opposed the development plans. The neighbours expressed concerns that the proposed building would block sunlight, reduce their privacy and completely overshadow their home. [1]
Sandbanks is an affluent neighbourhood in Poole situated on a narrow spit covering roughly one square kilometre at the mouth of Poole Harbour. The area developed from sand dunes into a resort during the early twentieth century before becoming an exclusive residential area along the coast. [2][3]
