Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area
  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of occupants of neighbouring properties

What decided it

The visual impact of the development is limited by its location at the rear of the property and mature trees, and it sits within an already diverse and mixed-character streetscape where neighbouring properties have similarly been extended, such that it does not detract significantly from the character and appearance of the area or materially worsen living conditions compared to the pre-existing roof extension.
