There are separate planning applications pending for the two parts of 48 Lauder Road, which is a C-listed villa built around 1875 and sub-divided in 1949 into the ground floor flat (No. 48A) and the first floor flat (No. 48). The house is on the west side of Lauder Road, close to the northern end, at Hatton Place. This is a streetview from July 2008.

The planning application from No. 48 was submitted on 14 December 2018 and the corresponding Listed Building Consent (LBC) application was submitted on 9 January 2019. This is for a ground floor extension to the rear, accessed by an internal stairway from the kitchen of the first floor flat, with a glass balcony at first floor level.

The LBC application from No. 48A and the corresponding planning application were validated on 4 February 2019. This proposes another ground floor extension to the rear, as well as internal reconfiguration. This application, however, indicates a reconfiguration of the garden allocations between the two flats, as this extension is to be built on ground shown in No. 48's application as mutually owned.

Neither the applications from No. 48A nor those from No. 48 show the proposals from the other property and therefore there are no drawings showing the final configuration if both sets of proposals are approved.

The application from No. 48A includes the replacement of part of the front garden with a 6.5m x 4m tarmac hardstanding for a large vehicle, with the removal of the hedge and boundary wall. No. 48 already has a driveway and garage and the proposed new hardstanding would be adjacent to No. 48's driveway, both of which would be ungated.

The applications from 48 Lauder Road for its rear extension were approved on 7 March 2019. The LBC application from 48A was approved on 19 March 2019 but the handling report for this approval noted that the proposed parking arrangement at the front of the property is not a matter for listed building consent. The planning application remains outstanding and awaiting assessment. Revised drawings have been posted giving more details of the proposed driveway entrance (width 3.6m) and the dropped kerb and which now include a motorised sliding gate. The drawings still show a tarmac surface of 4m x 6.5m.

A new application for Listed Building Consent (LBC) 19/02011/LBC has been submitted for No. 48A. This now shows hard-standing 3m x 7m with an electric charging point. The revised proposal is for the hard-standing to be on the left (southern) side of the site.

There is not yet any corresponding application for planning permission validated for this revised proposal.
