Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the future occupiers of the studio flat, having regard to outlook, light, private outside space and privacy
What decided it
The unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers, particularly poor outlook, restricted light, and inadequate private amenity space, significantly and demonstrably outweigh the negligible housing supply benefit.
The adverse impacts of poor living conditions would outweigh the benefits of housing supply and good location, and even under the tilted balance test the adverse impacts would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits
