Bretton property to be converted into HMO in Peterborough

Peterborough City Council has granted permission for the conversion of a four-bedroom home in Bretton into a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO).

The property at 49 Barnstock is currently vacant but now has permission to be internally remodelled to create a HMO for a maximum of six people.

A small extension will also be added to the rear of the property to increase the size of the kitchen.

The applicants Ithaca Homes Limited have said that the work will take place during standard working hours to limit the inconvenience to neighbouring properties.

The property has not been occupied since April 2023 but will now have two bedrooms on each of the three floors as well as an en-suite for each bedroom.

The application can be viewed online on Peterborough city council’s planning portal by searching using reference number 23/00575/CLP.
