Why do some side extensions have a much higher front than the actual roof?
Ie from the front it will be squared off like the green line, but when you look from the side the roof is lower.
To stop the back neighbours at the end of the garden 2 metres away from peering in through the new skylights over the kitchen while you're making coffee naked
As in it's to do with sight lines? I've seen it on garages too.
It doesn't strike me as an aesthetic improvement, so wondered if it was some sort of planning trick.
