A nail technician has submitted plans to operate a home-based salon from a summerhouse in the garden of a residential property in Newport.
Kriszta Oltean Kis has applied to the Isle of Wight Council for planning permission to run the business from the rear garden of her home at 59 Robin Hood Street in Pan.
Currently working at a salon in Shanklin, Kriszta says the proposed business would operate on a one-to-one basis, with only a single client attending at any one time.
According to the application, the salon would be open between 09:00 and 20:00.
In a statement submitted with the application, Miss Oltean Kis said:
“There is a summerhouse that I would like permission to run my business from. I have a 3-car drive where I am able to offer my clients a parking space, not affecting the road.
“There will be no employees or other people working.”
The proposal follows a similar application approved by the Isle of Wight Council earlier this year, allowing a hair salon to operate from a garden shed at a property in Albany Road, Hunnyhill, serving around four or five clients each day.
The council’s public consultation is open until 21st August, with a decision expected by 16th September.
