Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the house and the local area
- living conditions at the neighbouring properties, in terms of the effect on outlook and any overlooking or perception of overlooking
- the potential for future development at adjacent properties in light of the existence of side windows in the new extension
What decided it
The low height and limited visibility of the extension, combined with the obscure glazing of side windows, mean it does not significantly harm character, appearance or neighbours' living conditions, and does not prejudice adjacent development.
