The scheme has attracted a number of objections from residents.
The main concerns raised in public comments include the impact on neighbours’ privacy, the increase in development at the site, and potential changes to sunlight reaching nearby properties.
Several neighbours have written to the council, highlighting how the proposed house would overlook their gardens and affect the light in their homes.
Swanmore Parish Council has raised further objections.

Other issues raised include access to the property from a busy road, the possibility of overdevelopment, and the loss of privacy for neighbours.
Specialists’ reports have been included as part of the planning application, such as a planning statement, a biodiversity checklist, and a nutrient assessment.
These documents set out the environmental factors which need to be considered.

The application is being considered by Winchester City Council.
The final decision will be made by the planning committee.
