Plans to convert Tenby's old lifeboat station into residential accommodation are set to go before members of Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority's development management committee on Monday.
The application, submitted by Tim O'Donovan, of Llandaff, Cardiff, has been supported by the RNLI, and will see the resort's historic old station converted into a four-bedroom three-bathroom property.
According to National Park officers, the proposal involves relatively minor changes to the building, with its external appearance remaining in the main, as existing.
The existing access walkway and boat slip will also remain, with the main changes to the external appearance being - the addition of small windows to the sides, the change of the boat launch doors to windows, the relocation of the existing roof lights, and the addition of a porch on the southern end and a balcony on the northern end.
Tenby Town Council members have welcomed the application with no objections.
However, councillors have requested that consideration be given to reducing the scale of the proposed balcony, as they feel its height and dimension off the existing slipway would look too intrusive on the seaward side of the visually prominent building.
