Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers of 33 and 35 Chippenham Avenue, with particular regard to privacy, external amenity space and outlook
- Whether the proposed new dwelling would provide for satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to external amenity space
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of privacy, overbearing impact on outlook, and reduction of external amenity space outweighed the modest benefits of providing a new dwelling.
The benefits of providing a new dwelling in a sustainable location with limited economic benefits were outweighed by the significant harm to neighbouring occupiers' living conditions and conflicts with development plan policies.
