Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of both the original dwelling and the local area
- Whether the proposal would have an adverse effect on the efficiency of solar panels on the neighbouring property at number 199A Aylesbury Road
What decided it
The proposed extensions, whilst large, would not have an adverse effect on the character and appearance of the dwelling or local area when considered in context, and any impact on neighbouring solar panels would not be sufficiently harmful to warrant refusal.
The benefits of allowing the extensions to the householder were balanced against design guidance concerns and solar panel efficiency, with the former outweighing the latter given the contextual setting and limited visibility.
