Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the dwelling
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 38 Sandiway Road, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
What decided it
The proposed development would cause significant harm to both the character and appearance of the dwelling and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of outlook, daylight and privacy, which cannot be outweighed by the appellant's maintenance considerations.
