Plans have been unveiled which could see a new house built in Mauchline just metres from a neighbouring property.

An application has been submitted to East Ayrshire Council by JKM Consultancy, on behalf of Mr Namaan Shafiq.

Proposals would see the four-bedroom home built on land just off of Hamilton Avenue, at its junction with Lochlea Avenue.

The land is currently open grassland, but is next to a semi-detached property on Lochlea Avenue.

A previous application for a home on the land by the same applicants was withdrawn in September 2023.

That application sparked objections from a number of local residents, who raised concern at its proximity to the house next door.

Those withdrawn plans included a 1.8 metre high boundary fence, something which also features in the new application.

The newest application has not received any objections from the public as of yet.

The Ayrshire Roads Alliance, which deals with roads issues on behalf of East Ayrshire Council, says that a road opening permit will be required for the dropped kerb footway access crossing.
