Private Open Space. Privacy is an essential part of human living and is particularly important in relation to homes. Private open space should be designed for maximum privacy and orientated for maximum sunshine and shelter. Access and layout should ensure normal household activities such as refuse and fuel storage, clothes drying etc. can be carried out comfortably. The Council will also seek to ensure that neighbouring residential amenity is protected. Boundaries to rear gardens will normally be not less than 1.8m high. An absolute minimum private open space of 55 m. sq. will be required for all houses. Generally, the standards to be applied for private open space provision per bed-space8 are 16 sq. m. for houses and maisonettes and 10 sq. m. for apartments and flats. (Thus a standard 3 bedroom house, with one single bedroom and two double bedrooms, would require private open space of not less than 80 m. sq. Private opens space shall exclude car parking bays. In addition a minimum of 22m will normally be required between directly opposing rear first floor windows. A minimum of 2.5 m should be provided between dwellings so as to provide access for maintenance. In innovative designs, where a mix of houses, maisonettes and apartments with semi-private and communal open spaces, is proposed, private open space may be provided in the form of courtyards, balconies, terraces and patios. In such cases adequate alternative provision for storage and laundry must be provided.
