Single-storey extension added to side and rear of house

Ronan Kelly has lodged a planning application with Westmeath County Council for a single‑storey extension to his home at 28 The Close in Petitswood, Mullingar. The proposal calls for an addition on the side and rear of the dwelling, together with associated site works to prepare the surrounding area.

The council’s file (reference 2660190) records that the application was received on 19 April 2026 and carries a decision code of CONDITIONAL. A decision is due by 13 June 2026, and the council confirmed its decision on 12 June 2026.

Petitswood is a residential suburb of Mullingar in County Westmeath, and the extension would increase the house’s footprint while maintaining the single‑storey character of the neighbourhood. The site works are intended to support the new structure and ensure compliance with local planning regulations.

The council has not yet released details on any conditions attached to the approval, but the conditional status indicates that further information or adjustments may be required before final consent is granted.

For more detail, see the Westmeath County Council planning file (reference 2660190).
