Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effects of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effects of the development on the living conditions of future occupants with regard to the provision of private outdoor amenity space
- whether the development would provide an appropriate amount of parking space
What decided it
The unacceptable effects on character and appearance and the inadequate provision of private outdoor amenity space, which together conflict with the development plan and cannot be outweighed by the benefits of additional housing.
The social, economic and environmental benefits of more efficient site use and an additional dwelling in a well-connected location were outweighed by the harm to character and appearance and living conditions.
