Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the Bungalow Estate Conservation Area
- whether the proposal would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers of the proposed dwelling with particular regard to internal accommodation and outlook
- whether the proposal would provide safe, suitable access for all users
- whether the proposal would make suitable provision for cycle parking and for storage and collection of waste
- the effect of the proposal on the integrity of the Epping Forest Special Area of Conservation (SAC)
What decided it
The proposal would not provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers in terms of internal accommodation and outlook, and would not provide safe and suitable access for all users, resulting in conflict with the development plan that was not outweighed by material considerations.
