Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect upon the character and appearance of the area
- The effect upon the living conditions of neighbouring residential occupiers at No 27a Salisbury Road, having particular regard to light and outlook
- Whether or not acceptable living conditions would be provided for existing and future residential occupiers on-site, having particular regard to the intended internal living arrangements and the availability of private garden space
- The effect upon travel choices, having particular regard to the future availability of parking permits
What decided it
The multiple harms identified—to neighbouring living conditions, on-site living conditions, and sustainable travel choices—outweighed the limited benefit of one additional housing unit and were the overriding considerations.
The modest benefit of one additional residential unit did not outweigh the multiple harms and associated policy conflicts relating to neighbouring living conditions, on-site living conditions, and sustainable travel choices.
