Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the living conditions for the future occupiers of the dwelling, with regard to outlook and private outdoor amenity space
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of the upper floor flats within 29 Bramshot Avenue, having regard to outdoor amenity space
What decided it
The proposed dwelling would provide unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers due to poor outlook from the bedroom windows and would cause harmful loss of outdoor amenity space for existing upper floor flat occupiers.
The benefits of one additional dwelling and economic benefits from construction and future occupation were outweighed by the harm to living conditions of both future occupiers and existing residents.
