Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future occupants of the proposed flats, with particular regard to outlook and light
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring residents, with particular regard to parking, noise and disturbance
- Whether proposed cycle parking storage facilities would be adequate
What decided it
The significant harm to the living conditions of future occupants of Flat 1 through an unacceptably gloomy bedroom with a cramped sense of enclosure outweighed the limited benefits of housing supply.
The limited benefits of housing supply (four flats contributing to local housing supply with convenient access to public transport and local facilities) did not outweigh the significant harm to the living conditions of future occupants of Flat 1.
