Amy Huberman and Brian O ‘ Driscoll’s plans to revamp their Rathmines home have hit a major set back as their next door neighbours have objected to the renovations.
The former Ireland Rugby captain and the Threesome actress had made plans to extend and renovate their €1.8 million family home in south Dublin, which included a three-storey extension.
However it has now emerged that the couple’s next door neighbours have filed an objection to the building work to Dublin City Council, claiming that the renovations would be “hugely detrimental to the amenity” of their own home.
Director of Coda Architects, Brian O’Donnell said that the claims made in the planning permission application that their neighbours had been consulted throughout the process were false.
“We would like to correct this statement. Whilst some consultation did take place, the applicants in the end, declined to amend their scheme to accommodate the concerns of my clients in relation to the extent of the proposed development.” Brian stated.
Brian and Amy have yet to respond to the objections made.
