Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of occupants of 107 and 109 Bouverie Avenue South with particular regard to noise and disturbance, and 9 Francis Way and 59a Bouverie Avenue, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
What decided it
The harmful effect on character and appearance, arising from the dwelling's poor relationship to the street and conflict with the linear pattern of development, outweighs the limited housing and economic benefits in the planning balance.
The environmental harm to character and appearance weighs against the scheme; the absence of harm to living conditions is neutral; the limited housing and economic benefits of a single dwelling do not significantly and demonstrably outweigh the environmental harm, so the presumption in favour of sustainable development does not apply.
