Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would provide appropriate living conditions for future occupiers, with reference to the provision of internal space and external amenity space
- Whether or not the proposed development would result in the unacceptable loss of a single-family dwelling
- The effect of the proposed development on highway safety within the surrounding area
What decided it
The lack of external amenity space for the first/second floor flat and the failure to meet the 120m² floorspace threshold in Policy DMH 4 for conversion of single-family dwellings.
