We have received formal notification from Angus Council that we have “won” Planning Approval for this new house in the town of Montrose.

In advance of making the application, we anticipated this as being quite a challenge due to the complex nature of the site and that we would have to make persuasive arguments, and agree to make some compromises in order to obtain approval.
