We moved into our ex-council house 3 years ago. We bought it from a private owner, not the council. The owner before the pervious one converted the loft into a large room about 10 years ago. It appears to be done correctly, well insulated, proper staircase, fire door etc. We are re-locating and want to sell the house but there is no documentation for the conversion.
Is there some law that exempts planning permission after a certain amount of time? Or if we try and get documentation from the local council will they order us to put it back the way it was? This is Scotland and usually the law differs from England. We basically want to class it as a bedroom as it is huge with about 8' in height.
