Cheryl puts plans in motion to build dream house extension



Cheryl and Liam Payne have submitted fresh plans for their mansion home that will nearly double the size of the original building - if approved.



The singing pair want to fit in a new garage area, which will have a passageway to the main house and an indoor pool area as well as to the new guest house.



It comes after couple had planning permission refused for a new ‘super garage’ to house their £1 million fleet of six cars by Woking Borough Council.



The authority deemed it ‘inappropriate’ amid concerns to nearby mature trees, according to planning documents.



The couple have submitted numerous planning applications to the council to modify the house in Woking, Surrey, which Liam bought for £5.1 million in March 2015.



If their latest plans are approved it means building work can finally begin on their home, which they have been trying to develop for the past two and a half years.





In May 2015, they had a planning application approved for a single storey extension on the main house, which includes a spectacular indoor pool with its own tropical plant area, rockery, flowing stream and jacuzzi.



But they changed these plans three months later to include an adjoining basement area, with a gym and games room, which was approved in October 2015.





No building work had begun on the property before they successfully applied for planning permission in January 2017 to convert the original garage into a guest house.



The guest house included a two-spaced garage on the ground floor and an en-suite bedroom on the first.



Now they want to fit in a new garage area, which will have a passageway to the main house and indoor pool area, as well as to the guest house.





Because the plans include interlinking passageways, it is critical that Cheryl and Liam gain approval otherwise they will have to submit completely new plans for the entire house. 



The application states: 'The existing and original house... has a footprint of 433 square metres, an overall floor area of 1024 square metres and a cubic content of 3437 cubic metres.



The proposed extension, including the basement and two-bay garage would have a floor area of 473 square metres and a cubic content of 2494 cubic metres.



This amounts to a total increase of 71.8 percent above the cubic content of the original dwelling.
