Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the building and the area
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of 32 Hillside Road by way of outlook and visual impact

What decided it

The unacceptable effect on the character and appearance of the building and the area, particularly the harm to the Northwood Hills Area of Special Local Character designation.

The personal benefit of increased internal space for a family home was outweighed by the unacceptable harm to character and appearance and the protection afforded to the non-designated heritage asset.
