Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed balcony on the living conditions of the occupants of 39 and 43 Nelson Road with regard to privacy
What decided it
The proposed balcony would cause significant harm to the living conditions of the occupants of 39 and 43 Nelson Road with regard to privacy, which could not be adequately mitigated and outweighed the modest amenity benefit to the flat.
The small amount of outdoor amenity space benefit to the flat did not outweigh the significant harm to the privacy of neighbouring occupants.
