What’s proposed

Ciaran and Elaine Murtagh intend to apply for planning permission for the change of use of the existing property at 16 Grand Canal Street Upper, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4, D04 PX73, from office use to residential use. The proposed development includes the demolition of the existing storefront and the reinstatement of a brick façade with a single window to reflect the established residential character of the street. The works also comprise the refurbishment of the existing rear extension, including the replacement of the rear façade with a new brick and smooth rendered external wall and a new sliding-door façade, and the removal of the existing flat roof and skylights to be replaced with a new flat roof with parapet capping and one rooflight. The development further provides for a new 6.5 m² glazed internal courtyard, internal layout alterations, one car parking space to the front and one car parking space to the rear accessed via a new rear gate, and all associated site development works
