I built a double-storied house with the consent of the neighbour.

Question

I built a double-storied house with the consent of the neighbour. Can the neighbour revoke his consent after I have built the house?

Answer

The revocation by the neighbour after the house has been built with his consent will not be valid. However, regardless of his consent, it is not permissible to have a window in the house which overlooks into the neighbour's premises. The windows should be close to the ceiling to prevent looking into the neighbour's premises.
