Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including the appeal property
- Effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 124 Mandale Road, with particular regards to outlook
What decided it
The proposed extensions would harm the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, contrary to the development plan and supplementary planning guidance, with no material considerations of sufficient weight to outweigh these harms.
The material considerations in favour of the scheme (restoring balance to the semi-detached pair and providing additional family accommodation) did not outweigh the identified harm to character and appearance and neighbouring living conditions.
