Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the appeal property and the conservation area
- Its effect on living conditions at the neighbouring No 6 Lake House Road, with particular regard to any loss of light and whether the extension is overbearing/harmful to the outlook of the neighbouring property
What decided it
The development significantly harms living conditions at the neighbouring property through its overbearing effect and impact on outlook, which outweighs any other considerations and conflicts with the development plan.
