DAVID and Victoria Beckham were last night given the go-ahead by planners to turn a garden store into THREE home offices at their \u00a312million Cotswolds estate.<\/p>\n
England and Man Utd legend David, 48, and fashion designer wife Victoria, 49, want to convert the loft of an existing outbuilding into three separate work stations.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
And they want to add an external door and timber staircase and two conservation rooflights for natural lighting.<\/p>\n
But they needed planning permission from the local council because their rural retreat comprising a cottage, barn and stables, is Grade II listed.<\/p>\n
It is the latest in a string of planning applications including a new driveway, an extra garage, tennis court, treehouse, security hut, pond, and greenhouse with kitchen garden.<\/p>\n
And their plans have finally been granted – with the council seeing no reason they can't go ahead with the build at their countryside estate.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Officials ruled the proposed development 'on-side' after there were no objections from neighbours to this specific application.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Two months ago, a similar application was slammed by a neighbour, who said: "Surely this is just a back-door way of trying to turn this barn into a residential property? It is a barn and should remain so.\u201d<\/p>\n
But clearly the council thought differently – and approved the plans.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It follows a row with neighbours over plans to build a temporary road.<\/p>\n
