Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
What decided it
The proposed dwelling's excessive setback from the road frontage would make it appear incongruous and disjointed in its immediate setting, failing to relate to neighbouring buildings and conflicting with the requirement to follow the existing pattern of development line.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy BE3 of Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough Plan 2019Paragraph 10.9 of the Council's Sustainable Design and Construction SPD 2020
