A historic building in Ryde Town Centre will be home to 2 new apartments – above an Indian restaurant.
Mr S. Miah has won planning and listed building consent for a change of use of the first and second floors above Ryde Tandoori at 45 Union Street, a Grade II 19th century property, into 2 flats.
The building is currently used for the restaurant over all three of its storeys.
Approved residential units will have a kitchen, dining and living area as well as a bathroom.
Two double bedrooms are planned for flat one, which will be across the first and second floors, and the second apartment will have a single double bedroom.
Mr Miah’s agent, Dean Parkman architecture, previously told the Isle of Wight Council:
“The proposed development will result in greater utilisation of excessive restaurant and staffroom facilities space.
“The existing ground floor commercial use will remain without any modifications/change to the historic principal façade.
Article continues below this advertisement “The proposed development will provide an acceptable residential environment for the prospective occupiers without causing any unacceptable impact on the neighbouring uses.”
Planners included 5 conditions in the permission for the protection of heritage and local amenity as well as planning policy and legal compliance.
An HMO then.
Why not, nice little earner.
Obviously nothing better to write about
