The ground floor of the property will be converted from residential use to provide a charity shop, public reception, offices and operational space connected to the animal welfare centre.
Part of the first floor will become storage space, while the remainder will be retained as a self-contained one-bedroom flat.
Plans also include new enclosed cat pens to the rear of number 179 and the replacement and refurbishment of older pens at the existing centre.
Secure cycle storage, electric vehicle charging infrastructure and bin storage are also included in the proposals.
