Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the housing mix in the area
  • the character and appearance of the area
  • living conditions for future occupiers with specific regard to private amenity space
  • the effect of the proposal on the Epping Forest Special Area of Conservation (SAC)

What decided it

The proposal would provide insufficient private amenity space and parking for future occupiers in a location not supported by development plan policy for such conversions, and this harm significantly and demonstrably outweighs the benefit of a single net additional dwelling.

the harm from inadequate amenity space, unsupported location, and poor parking arrangements significantly and demonstrably outweighs the benefit of a single net additional dwelling, notwithstanding the need for homes and below-target housing delivery
